WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING
The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body which allows the arm to move in many different positions. This requires many muscles to work together to move the arm effectively. The large available range of motion, complex sequencing of muscle coordination, and repetitive demands placed on the shoulder can make the shoulder prone to injury.
