Exercise Rehabilitation of the Shoulder

Exercise Rehabilitation of the Shoulder

Shoulder pain is one of the most common reasons patients end their physical therapy, especially if they come from an acute phase of recovery. This happens because the shoulder’s range of motion is minimal, which reduces its ability to participate in exercises involving moving around the axis of abduction and external rotation. This article will explain how you can use exercise rehabilitation of the shoulder to help your patients recover from a post-operative or traumatic episode with frozen shoulders, adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder), or chronic tendonitis.courseimage-shoulder-r2

DESCRIPTION:

“Nearly 6 million people a year visit their doctor for shoulder pain, strains, dislocations or other shoulder-related problems”
In the Exercise Rehabilitation of the Shoulder course, the functional anatomy of the shoulder joint will be reviewed.

  • Evaluation of the shoulder joint.
  • Common shoulder injuries, key points of each injury, and how to rehabilitate them.
