Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation

Meaning

Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, when viewed through the lens of hormonal health, is a specialized therapeutic process focused on restoring optimal function, strength, and mobility to the body’s muscles, bones, joints, and connective tissues, while explicitly integrating the role of anabolic hormones and metabolic factors. This approach recognizes that the efficacy of physical therapy is fundamentally dependent on adequate levels of growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), testosterone, and vitamin D to support tissue repair and remodeling. The clinical goal is to maximize recovery and prevent recurrence by optimizing the endocrine environment.
