Moving Well

Self-assessment of your bone, joint and muscle health and guidance to improve.

Want to understand what helps you to move well and do the things you enjoy into your later years?

The Moving Well Musculoskeletal (MSK) app has been developed to offer a self-assessment of your Musculoskeletal (MSK) health which includes bones, joints, muscles. It provides evidence-based support and guidance on how to prevent and/or manage issues linked with MSK conditions, such as pain, stiffness, reduced mobility and dexterity.

This App is not a clinical diagnostic tool, it will not provide you with a diagnosis or medical treatment. It is aimed primarily for use to prevent MSK health conditions and help maintain good bone, joint and muscle health.
