Bones, muscles and joints
Musculoskeletal disorders are very common and are often caused by repetitive motions and sustained awkward postures. In today's world, sedentary behaviours (e.g. prolonged sitting, lack of physical activity) pose health risks to many workers, including drivers and IT and office workers. The sedentary nature of work leads to chronic joint pain and reduced work capacity.
Meliva employs specialists who can help maintain the health and functioning of your bones, muscles and joints. Our team includes orthopaedists, hand surgeons, physiotherapists, sports medicine physicians, and massage therapists.
Patients with bone, muscle and joint problems are welcome to see an orthopaedist for treatment and disease prevention.
The main reasons for consulting an orthopaedist include:
- Bone and joint problems such as shoulder, knee, hip or ankle pain, joint wear and tear and injuries
- Muscle and tendon injuries
- Back pain that is not responding to physical therapy or pain medications
- Problems due to overuse
- Planning surgical treatment for bone, muscle and joint problems
A hand surgeon can be consulted for all problems related to the nerves, muscles, tendons and joints of the hand.
