About This Course

Musculoskeletal conditions and pain can affect mobility, independence, and participation in everyday activities. The MSK & Pain course explores foundational concepts in biomechanics, pain science, chronic pain models, joint protection, energy conservation, and functional movement.

Through structured learning, rehabilitation professionals can strengthen their understanding of how musculoskeletal challenges influence daily life and explore strategies that support functional performance, patient education, and self-management.

What You'll Learn

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Explain foundational biomechanics concepts relevant to movement and function.

  • Describe pain science principles and explore different models of chronic pain.

  • Identify joint protection strategies that support functional activities.

  • Apply energy conservation principles to everyday tasks.

  • Explore rehabilitation considerations for individuals with arthritis.

  • Recognize how ergonomics can influence movement and physical demands.

Why Enroll in this Course?

Effective rehabilitation requires understanding how pain, mobility limitations, joint conditions, and physical demands affect a person's everyday life. This course helps you build a broader perspective on musculoskeletal rehabilitation, from biomechanics and pain science to joint protection, ergonomics, and self-management.

For professionals pursuing specialized lymphedema education, this knowledge can also complement clinical learning. Musculoskeletal pain, arthritis, reduced mobility, and limited hand function may create practical challenges for some people managing lymphedema, including difficulties with compression garments and self-care routines. Understanding these challenges can help you recognize when an individualized approach or additional support may be needed.
