Welcome to the AOCPMR NMSK Initiative
The American Osteopathic College of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (AOCPMR) proudly introduces the NMSK Initiative—a strategic platform advancing neuromusculoskeletal excellence through education, collaboration, and practical clinical application. This initiative was launched under the leadership of Dr. Amir Mahajer and the 2024–2026 Executive Council, in partnership with its dedicated committees.
Rooted in the principles of Osteopathic Physiatry and centered on function, movement, and patient-centered care, the NMSK Initiative reflects AOCPMR’s enduring commitment to elevating how clinicians help patients move, recover, and thrive.
Advancing Neuromusculoskeletal Care
The NMSK Initiative brings together clinicians, educators, and thought leaders with a shared objective: translating evidence-informed neuromusculoskeletal medicine into meaningful, real-world outcomes.
From restoring mobility and alleviating pain to optimizing long-term function and performance, the initiative emphasizes practical, immediately applicable strategies that enhance patient care.
Grounded in neuromusculoskeletal and rehabilitation science, the NMSK framework recognizes the essential interplay between appropriately dosed movement, thoughtful pharmacologic management, and precisely executed interventions. This comprehensive approach supports patients across the continuum of recovery, performance optimization, and healthy aging.
The NMSK Podcast
Hosted by AOCPMR, the NMSK Podcast features physicians, allied health professionals, and special guests sharing clinical perspectives, emerging evidence, and practical insights in neuromusculoskeletal medicine. Through focused discussion and real-world application, the podcast is designed to inform, inspire, and support clinicians at every stage of practice.
The NMSK Workshop Series - Relaunching at AOCPMR26
AOCPMR has a longstanding history of pioneering ultrasound workshops that have set the standard across professional organizations. Building on that legacy, we are relaunching our educational programming with the NMSK Workshop Series.
These hands-on, clinically focused workshops are designed to refine diagnostic accuracy, strengthen therapeutic decision-making, and enhance procedural execution. Each session is constructed to translate directly into improved patient outcomes—equipping clinicians with tools that elevate function, performance, and quality of life.
