Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed(1).

Types of Musculo-Skeletal disorders in elder(2)

1. Osteoarthritis
2. Gout
3. Rheumatoid Arthritis
4. Polymalagia Arthritis
5. Cervical myleopathy and spinal canal stenosis
6. Osteoporosis
7. Low back pain
8. Fibromyalgia

                           The  alternative natural treatment - Tai Chi

B.7. The alternative natural treatment
Beside suggesting certain herbal medicine for treatment of osteoarthritis, modern herbal and TCM medicine doctors may also combine other natural treatment for alleviating symptoms of the disease osteoarthritis(382).

B.7. The alternative natural treatment
Beside suggesting certain herbal medicine for treatment of osteoarthritis, modern herbal and TCM medicine doctors may also combine other natural treatment for alleviating symptoms of the disease osteoarthritis(382).
5. Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy, using water for the treatment of disease has shown some beneficiary for treating pain in patient with lower back pain(399), joint hemorrhages(400) and multiple sclerosis(401). In patient with knee osteoarthritis, water therapy reduced knee pain and increased knee function in participants with knee OA as effectively as conventional based therapy(402).In a randomized controlled trial conducted among 152 older persons with chronic symptomatic hip or knee OA by the University of Sydney, hydrotherapy or Tai Chi classes showed to enhance large and sustained improvements in physical function for many older, sedentary individuals with chronic hip or knee OA(403).
In lower limb osteoarthritis, the study of 106 patients (93 women, 13 men) over the age of 60 years with confirmed hip and/or knee OA suggested that water exercise induced significantly reduction in pain and improvement in physical function of the participants after 1 year with a favourable cost--benefit outcome(404).
Unfortunately, the water gym study conducted by the Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio Mesquita Filho, showed no beneficiary in improving symptoms of individuals with knee OA(405).

B.7. The alternative natural treatment
Beside suggesting certain herbal medicine for treatment of osteoarthritis, modern herbal and TCM medicine doctors may also combine other natural treatment for alleviating symptoms of the disease osteoarthritis(382).
4. Spa therapy
Spa therapy may be one the effective technique for treatment of lower back pain, according to some studies(392)(393)9394). In patient with rheumatoid arthritis, spa therapy showed to relief symptoms of pain, stiffness and mobility(395). According to the joint study by the University of Siena and Spa Centre of Fonteverde Natural Spa Resort, the clinical trials conducted exhibited the support of spa therapy on pain, function and quality of life in hand OA(396), if used conjunction with the application of thermal treatments(396). In patient with knee osteoarthritis, especially in European countries, although the spa treatment is still the subject of debate, the existence of data of some clinical trials suggested a beneficial effect of spa therapy on pain, function and quality of life in knee OA if the treatment cover the duration from six to nine months(397).
In the study conducted by the University of Siena, Viale Bracci, spa therapy showed effectively in modified plasma levels of leptin and adiponectin of which are, important mediators of cartilage metabolism and related to the development of knee osteoarthritis(398)

B.7. The alternative natural treatment
Beside suggesting certain herbal medicine for treatment of osteoarthritis, modern herbal and TCM medicine doctors may also combine other natural treatment for alleviating symptoms of the disease osteoarthritis(382).
2. Acupuncture
The most oldest form of medical treatment in traditional Chinese medicine has been known for its function in relief pain(383) and functional limitation(384) for chronic patient, including patient with moderate or severe chronic knee pain(383), peripheral joint osteoarthritis(384) and hip osteoarthritis(385) with many different techniques, such as acupuncture techniques, moxibustion, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation(392).
In pain management, acupuncture is found to significant reduce pain intensity, improve functional mobility and quality of life in patient with osteoarthritis (386). According to the University of York, in patient with knee osteoarthritis, in a systematic review with network meta-analysis, indicated that
acupuncture is considered as one of the more effective physical treatments for alleviating osteoarthritis knee pain in the short-term, but due to poor quality of the study(387), larger sample size and multi sample studies are necessary to confirm this claim.
Dr. Vas J. and Dr..White A said "... optimal results from acupuncture treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee may involve: climatic factors, particularly high temperature; high expectations of patients; minimum of four needles; electroacupuncture rather than manual acupuncture, and particularly, strong electrical stimulation to needles placed in muscle; and a course of at least 10 treatments"(388)

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed(1).

Types of Musculo-Skeletal disorders in elder(2)

1. Osteoarthritis
2. Gout
3. Rheumatoid Arthritis
4. Polymalagia Arthritis
5. Cervical myleopathy and spinal canal stenosis
6. Osteoporosis
7. Low back pain
8. Fibromyalgia

                           The Osteoarthritis Treatment - Electrostimulation



6. Electrostimulation
Use of electricity for treatment of pain, muscle dysfunction and sarcopenia can be dated back to Ancient Egyptians and later the Greeks and Romans(421). According to the Abteilung für Physikalische Medizin und Rehabilitation, transcutaneous electrostimulation may be effectively and positively in influence of pain and function, mobility, and quality of life in patients suffering from OA(422). Unfortunately, in the review of 14 trials resulting in the inclusion of 18 small trials in 813 patients, found that electrosimulation does not offer pain relief for effective for pain relief. for patient with osteoarthritis of the knee with the relative droping out rate as high as 95%(423).niversities of Exeter and Plymouth, Devon(375) probably through modulating OA pathogenesis by inhibiting a number of molecules and pathways(376), such as preventing the osteoarthritic osteoblast-induced inhibition of matrix molecule production in induced cartilage repair (377).
