Half of our country has a musculoskeletal condition in their neck, back, or extremities causing pain, stiffness, and other problems! 

This is a staggering number of people, many of those suffer on a daily basis and truly leading to a real health care crisis.

From The Article:

"An estimated 126.6 million Americans (one in two adults) are affected by a musculoskeletal condition–comparable to the total percentage of Americans living with a chronic lung or heart condition. Musculoskeletal problems cost an estimated $213 billion in annual treatment, care and lost wages, according to a new report issued today by the United States Bone and Joint Initiative (USBJI)."

"As a nation, we need to establish greater funding for musculoskeletal research, improve our understanding and strategies for prevention and treatment of these injuries and conditions, and ensure that more adults and children receive appropriate treatment sooner, and on an ongoing basis, to ensure quality of life and productivity," said Stuart L. Weinstein, MD, co-chair of the report's Steering Committee and a professor of orthopaedics and rehabilitation at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.
