The Effect of Exercise Intensity and Psychological Intervention on Musculoskeletal Disorders

This special issue belongs to the section “Sport and Health“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Musculoskeletal pain is the most common type of pain and requires a multidisciplinary approach from a rehabilitation point of view. It can range from myofascial pain syndrome, which causes or contributes to orofacial pain, low back, shoulder, and knee pain, all the way to intervertebral joints, which cause or contribute to the same complaints and cervical pain.

The peripheral nervous tissue is also frequently affected in injuries of the locomotor system or as a consequence of repetitive and accumulated overloads, both in sports practice and in the development of professional or daily activities.

All these disorders, and many others related to them, , need to be treated by physiotherapy, dentistry and psychology, among other disciplines.
