Revolutionary Shoulder Care for Spinal Cord Injury

SHOULDER-IMPINGEMENT-PUSH-300x300.jpg

We can’t emphasize enough the importance of having healthy shoulders for those with SCI. Shoulders, for those unable to walk, are the equivalent of one’s legs in terms of their importance to one’s quality of life. If you push a wheelchair, transfer yourself, or use a walker/crutches, you know that your shoulders do more than their fair share. Are you struggling with your shoulder health or concerned about keeping your shoulders healthy for the long term? Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by conflicting or confusing advice? In this 82-minute video presentation, Julie Grant, OTR/L, and Jill McVey, DPT, ATC share their clinical and personal experiences and dissect the research literature to help you more effectively care for your shoulders.

Whether you need to know if that pinch in the shoulder will go away if you just ignore it, or if you need to overhaul your entire strength program, Julie and Jill have you covered. You may view the video HERE.
