What is Neuromusculoskeletal (NMS) Physiotherapy?

The term “Neuromusculoskeletal” breaks down into:

• Neuro – Your Nerves and Nervous System

• Musculo – Your Muscles

• Skeletal – Your Bones and Joints

NMS physiotherapy is a specialized field that addresses disorders where a problem in one area (like a pinched nerve in your spine) causes symptoms in another (like pain down your leg). We don’t just treat the site of pain; we find and treat its underlying source.

• Referred Pain: Pain that originates from a joint or organ but is felt in a different part of your body (e.g., hip arthritis causing knee pain).

• Movement Dysfunction: Difficulty walking, balance problems, and muscle coordination issues stemming from neurological or musculoskeletal causes.

• Post-Injury Complications: Ongoing pain or weakness long after an initial injury has healed, indicating potential nerve or muscular system involvement.

• Headaches & Migraines: Especially those originating from neck dysfunction (cervicogenic headaches).
