Musculoskeletal injuries affect the muscles and the skeletal system. These injuries include those to the bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Injuries may be contusions (bruises), dislocations, fractures, sprains, strains, and spasms. The cause of injury can be a fall, sudden impact or excessive force to an area, repetitive movement, surgery, or an accident.

Early proper diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries can aid healing and may prevent long-term disability. Our physical therapists will work closely with you and your physician to determine the best means of treating your injury.
