When shoulder pain starts, it’s easy to think about just ignoring it, hoping that it will be gone by tomorrow. Maybe you assume you just tweaked it in a workout and it will be no big deal. Even worse, maybe you think your shoulder pain is just “normal” and it’s a part of getting older.
Our Solution
Dealing with this kind of problem? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, we help people every single day who feel this way.
You see, with shoulder pain, everyone asks us the same questions:
-
Why does my shoulder pain hurt so much?
-
Why isn’t my shoulder pain going away?
-
Will I have to live with this shoulder pain forever?
Unfortunately, there are a lot of confusing and misleading information out there that cause people to live with shoulder pain for way too long. Here are the most common mistakes that we see from the people that come to Rehab United with shoulder pain:
-
Mistake #1: Thinking shoulder pain will go away with rest and ice.
-
Mistake #2: Believing that shoulder pain will be “fixed” with pills or injections.
-
Mistake #3: Assuming shoulder pain is a “normal” part of getting older.
-
Mistake #4: Believing that since you've tried other healthcare professionals (even other physical therapists) in the past means that it won’t work now.
-
Mistake #5: Relying on “Dr. Google” or YouTube for exercises that didn’t make any difference (or maybe even made your shoulder pain worse!)
-
Mistake #6: Getting a cortisone injection from your doctor to ease the pain, only to have it come back a few months later.
We save a limited number of spots each week for time to meet or speak with people who are not sure what to do about their shoulder pain (or any pain). That way, you can talk to a provider about your specific condition, and get your questions answered first before ever making a commitment to book an appointment.
If that sounds like something you would like to do, give us a call or request an appointment.
Here’s the most important thing, most people get stuck trying to make a decision about what to do next. They go days, weeks, months, even years, without taking action. The one thing we can guarantee is that by doing nothing, your shoulder pain won’t get better, and will surely get worse, so take action!
