In this interview, the topic of musculoskeletal disorders are a leading cause of occupational ill health in the UK, accounting for 30% of all work-related ill health cases and 27% of lost working days. Affecting 14.9 million people nationally, and its costs the NHS over £5 billion per-year for treatment and support.


Arco have partnered with FLX Health to bring the FLX app to the UK which not only looks to accelerate the recover process, but also prevent injury in the first place.  Barry interviews Rob Lewis, CEO of FLX Health and John Mckindland from Arco to tell us more about MSD, and about their intervention, the FLX app.
