This coming Sunday morning our guest experts are Rob Anderson the CEO of Musculoskeletal Australia - MSK and A/Prof Christian Barton from Latrobe University - a physio and researcher focussing on knee OA/injury and pain management.

According to the World Health Organisation, Musculoskeletal conditions are the second largest contributor to disability worldwide, with low back pain being the single leading cause of disability globally.

Musculoskeletal conditions and injuries are not just conditions of older age - they are relevant across the life-course.
