Abstract

The human body is a complex organism, the gross mechanical properties of which are enabled by an interconnected musculoskeletal network controlled by the nervous system. The nature of musculoskeletal interconnection facilitates stability, voluntary movements, and robustness to injury50. It is also known as the loco motor system, and previously known as the activity system51. The skeleton is the structure that gives us our shape and provides protection for our internal organs. It offers a supportive framework for the attachment of muscles there for facilitating movement. Our bones also act as a site for the production of blood cells and a store of minerals, particularly calcium. The skeleton has five main functions: Support, Protection, Movement, Blood cell production and mineral store54.Despite being an ancient science Ayurveda gives detailed description about human Anatomy and Musculoskeletal system. In Ayurveda, Peshi, Asthi,Sandhi , Snayu, Kandara along with Jaala, Kurcha, Mamsarajju, Seevani, Sangatha,and Simantha are decscibed as the part of Musculoskeletal system. Diseses relared to musculoskeletal system are increasing day by day. Proper knowledge about this system will help to understand the diseases better and proper and effective management.
