The shoulder joint is one of the most heavily relied upon in the body. It is required to be extremely mobile and flexible. Unfortunately, the shoulder is also one of the most commonly injured parts of the body.
As noted by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, over 7.5 million people went to the doctor’s office in a single year for shoulder pain or discomfort. Over half (4.1 million) of these visits were rotator cuff injuries.
Common shoulder injuries we treat include:
- Labral Tears
- Sprains
- Rotator Cuff Injuries
- Tennis Elbow
- Dislocations
- Tendonitis / Bursitis
- Frozen Shoulder
- Arthritis
- Arthroscopic Surgery
