There really is not one, at least not in the most specific sense. A Physiatrist cares for the musculoskeletal system, but then so do physical therapists and massage therapists. If you need testing or diagnosis, you will need to see the medical doctor. For treatment of the muscular system, however, you will need the services of other health care professionals. In my experience, you cannot beat the hands-on skill of an experienced (and licensed) massage therapist.

Your BMI is just a ratio of your waist size to your height. It provides an approximate measure of your body fat not your muscle mass.
