What are the leading drivers of growth in the physical therapy market?

The escalating instances of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are anticipated to boost the physical therapy market’s expansion. MSDs, known as conditions affecting the bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and other musculoskeletal system elements, require physical therapy for curbing, managing and preventing these ailments. Intervention strategies include patient education, teaching ergonomics, modifying workplace safety, on-site treatment, and creating return-to-work programs. As per data from the World Health Organization in July 2022, around 1.71 billion people globally have been diagnosed with musculoskeletal conditions. Similarly, in a recent March 2022 survey published in PubMed Central (PMC), results from 282 students highlighted an upsurge in device use, prolonged sitting time, decreased physical activity and walking regimen during the pandemic. Significantly, 75.9% reported experiencing musculoskeletal discomfort, predominantly focusing on the shoulders and neck (65%). Around 46% of students who used laptops or phones from home revealed symptoms of text neck syndrome. Consequently, the rising cases of musculoskeletal disorders are predicted to galvanize the physical therapy market’s growth. The swelling numbers of the aging population are set to augment the physical therapy market’s expansion in the future. The aging demographic, distinguished by an increasing rate of senior citizens in a given community or population, often resort to physical therapy. It serves as a crucial healthcare measure aimed at tackling health issues associated with aging, enhancing movement, relieving pain, and promoting overall functional autonomy. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) in October 2022 indicates that the global population of individuals 60 years and older is expanding at a fast pace, with projections for a twofold increase by 2050 to eventually reach 2.1 billion. Therefore, the growing elderly population is contributing to the physical therapy market’s progression.
