Muscularskeletal pain, injury and health: Improving outcomes through conservative management

肌肉骨骼疼痛和损伤是我们老龄化社会面临的一个主要健康问题。在医疗保健和生产力损失方面的成本仅次于心血管疾病。该计划将解决主要的肌肉骨骼疾病，如脊柱疼痛和骨关节炎。该团队将开展对这些疾病潜在的真正和持久影响的研究——从它们发生的生理基础，到创新的无药物保守治疗的试验。

Musculoskeletal pain and injury is a major health issue facing our ageing society. The cost in terms of health care and lost productivity is second only to cardiovascular disease. This Program will address the major musculoskeletal disorders such as spinal pain and osteoarthritis. The team will undertake research with the potential for real and enduring impact on these conditions - from the physiological basis for their occurrence, to trials of innovative drug-free conservative treatments.
