Treatment of Shoulder Impingement

Course overview

Following a comprehensive evaluation of the patient presenting with shoulder impingement, problem areas are identified that therapy will address. This course will review how to treat those deficits found in evaluation that are limiting your patient from returning to their daily activities. Treatment techniques to address soft tissue imbalances through all stages of rehabilitation will be demonstrated. Evidenced-based therapeutic exercises will also be discussed to maximize your patient's strength, endurance, and functional use of the involved shoulder. This course will focus on treatment of patients that are not high level overhead athletes, but studies and techniques used to treat this population will be introduced.
