Course overview

Shoulder disorders from musculoskeletal problems can cause pain and loss of function. Some common shoulder injuries include shoulder instability, rotator cuff tears, impingement syndromes, and frozen shoulder. The traditional way to assess the disorder is to try and find the pathology in the anatomical component contributing to the condition. Is this effective? The current approach is the classification system, which relies more on identifying the irritated tissue and impairments. This system lays down the foundation for developing strategies for rehab training and intensity. Learn to identify and create the optimal treatment method for the specific shoulder injury presented by your patients using the classification system. The classification system, presented in this course, has been clinically proven to produce clinical outcomes that are better than they would be if we were to try to chase pathologic anatomy.
