“First, the front office staff will set you up an initial evaluation with a Physical Therapist. The therapist will review the patient’s history and goals, allowing them to create a treatment plan. They will measure range of motion and check the strength of the patient’s shoulder in order to target areas of weakness. Usually, treatment plans involve the arm bike, pulleys, shoulder shrugs, scap squeezes, and bicep curls. As you get stronger, your therapist will program more advanced exercises to improve shoulder flexibility, strength, and decreased pain. Lastly, your treatment would end with a form of modalities such as a cold pack, moist heat, or interferential current (IFC). We are confident that your commitment to your treatment plan will lead you to a place of strength and mobility.” – Latasha Nicholas
