Why is musculoskeletal health important?
Poor MSK health has a huge impact on people, their employers, the NHS and the wider economy. In fact, over 30 million working days are lost due to MSK conditions every year in the UK and they account for up to 30% of GP consultations in England.
Below are a collection of links to exercises and resources that can help you look after your muscles, joints, and overall musculoskeletal health.
Please note: The exercises shared below are general recommendations and may not be right for everyone. Everyone’s body and condition are different, so if you’re unsure or have any pain or medical concerns, check with a healthcare professional before trying them.
