Shoulder pain that physical therapy did not fix
Shoulder pain that hasn't responded to physical therapy often has a cause that's been missed - sometimes the shoulder itself, sometimes the neck referring pain, sometimes the mechanics of how the joint moves. We evaluate the full picture, not just the joint.
Shoulder pain that physical therapy didn't fix often has a missed cause - the joint itself, the neck referring pain, or the mechanics of how the shoulder moves. We evaluate the shoulder, the cervical spine, and the movement pattern together. SoftWave therapy is often effective for shoulder tendinopathies that haven't responded to other care.
SoftWave therapy stimulates blood vessel growth and cellular repair in damaged shoulder tissue.
We evaluate the shoulder, the cervical spine, and the movement pattern together, because shoulder pain can originate from the neck.
Adjustments address the cervical and thoracic alignment that affects how the shoulder moves.
Our treatment rooms are equipped for full shoulder, neck, and movement evaluation.
Corrective exercise retrains the muscles and movement patterns that keep the shoulder working properly.
Our team knows you by name and builds your care around what we actually see on your X-rays.
What it feels like
- Pain when lifting the arm overhead or reaching behind the back
- Pain that persists despite physical therapy
- Stiffness or reduced range of motion
- Pain that radiates from the neck into the shoulder
- Clicking, popping, or grinding in the joint
How we evaluate it
We evaluate the shoulder joint, the cervical spine, and the movement pattern together. Shoulder pain can originate from the joint, the neck, or the mechanics of how the two interact. If tendinopathy is involved and hasn't responded to therapy, SoftWave may be the next step.
