Table 2.

Considerations before recommending interdisciplinary interventions. To facilitate an objective recommendation for treatment selection, we created a list of the most common underlying neuro-musculoskeletal impairments of the primary movement features found in IGA. The table describes the primary segment of movement feature (column 1), underlying neuro-musculoskeletal impairment (column 2–3) and the interdisciplinary interventions under consideration (column 4–7)

Primary segment of movement feature and underlying neuro-musculoskeletal impairment			Interdisciplinary interventions under consideration
