According to the latest FOPH analyses, back and joint pain are among the most common and most expensive illnesses. Almost 80% of the population suffers from back pain at least once in their lives.

Most complaints are muscle-related and disappear after a few weeks. However, more and more people are suffering from chronic back and joint pain due to wear and tear. Various therapeutic options are available. It is important to regularly strengthen the muscles and adapt the strain in everyday life.

Modern medicine recognizes up to 200 rheumatic diseases. A distinction is essentially made between chronic degenerative diseases and chronic inflammatory diseases (rheumaliga.ch).
