Shoulder Pain or Inury
Several areas are critical to consider when treating shoulder pain and injury: the clavicle (collar bone), scapula (shoulder blade), cervical and thoracic spine, rib cage, and the shoulder joint itself. All of these bones and joints have to work together correctly, because the shoulder joint has the least stability and the most mobility of any joint in the body. We address each of these areas at Hands On Physical Therapy. Common problems of the shoulder include: rotator cuff strains and tears, bursitis, impingement syndrome, tendonitis and AC (acromioclavicular) joint sprain.
