Shoulder Care

Getting You Back to Normal—for Life!

When your shoulders glide and rotate as they’re supposed to, you give little thought to the intricate biomechanics they require, and how much has to go right for you to live the life you do. It is only when injury strikes that you realize all that you miss when your shoulders are compromised, and how arduous the simplest activities of daily life can become.
