Rehabilitation without an injury
Pain, overuse and degenerative conditions
This pathway covers symptoms that did not begin with a single injury. An orthopaedic surgeon and physiotherapist can help match a programme to the cause of symptoms and current function. Resources are organised by body area and then by the specific problem, leading to a rehabilitation programme with exercise instructions.
