Pain Management

Client Spotlight: Rotator Cuff Tears Won’t Slow Me Down!

Eric, who has been athletic all his life beginning with football in his youth to cycling, skiing and regular gym workouts, came to me with a goal to increase muscle tone/ strength, core strength and reduce shoulder pain. After just a few weeks of training he reported that his nagging shoulder pain was due to bilateral rotator cuff tears! Adding that injury to a previous left hip injury of a combined trochanter bursitis and IT Band syndrome plus a right lower leg/ankle that was a comminuted fracture of the fibula with a syndesmosis tear and deltoid ligament tear and removal made designing a program challenging, but we kept him training by incorporating shoulder stability and strengthening exercises into his workouts. Eric has seen an almost full recovery from his shoulder injuries in addition to gaining better lower body strength and stability!

Nearing the end of her lovely trip to the west coast I received this message, "It has been great out here in California, but I really miss you! I am much stronger than last year. I can feel it in my walking and I have you to thank. I am doing my exercises with my bands, but I look forward to more variety and challenges working with you."
