Shoulder Physical Therapy
The shoulder is an intricate structure, providing nearly 360 degrees of movement while stabilizing your arm for various activities, ranging from preparing your morning coffee to pitching at speeds exceeding 100 mph. This is achieved with the combined activity of multiple ligaments and muscles working together like a well-oiled machine. Its strength is also its weakness, because the excess motion it provides, also makes it susceptible to injuries. Free yourself from shoulder pain!
