INJURIES AND DISORDERS OF THE MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM

The musculoskeletal system is made up of several key components that support movement and body function. These include:

  • Bones – provide structure and support

  • Muscles – enable movement and stability

  • Ligaments – connect bones to other bones, providing joint stability

  • Tendons – attach muscles to bones, enabling movement

  • Nerves – transmit signals to and from the brain, affecting movement and sensation

  • Chiropractic care can assist with injuries and disorders affecting these areas, helping to:

    • Reduce pain and discomfort

    • Improve mobility and flexibility

    • Address nerve-related pain (referred pain) that originates from areas like the spine and radiates to other parts of the body

    By focusing on the connection between the spine, nervous system, and musculoskeletal health, chiropractic care can promote overall health and well-being.
