Painful Shoulder Syndrome – Management and Rehabilitation: What is the Evidence?

Presented by Mark Webster BSc, DC, MSc, FCC (ortho)
 

 INTRODUCTION

 Shoulder problems are the most common presenting extremity conditions in chiropractic practice. They are usually very persistent and often become a chronic burden to the patient’s quality of life. New knowledge on shoulder conditions from MRI imaging as well as from diagnostic ultrasound, give us a better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms responsible for shoulder joint malfunction.

 Learning to assess functional integrity not only of the shoulder itself, but the whole ‘upper quadrant’ of the body and addressing these problems appropriately are important in effective evidence based management of patients with shoulder problems.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Attending this seminar will enable you to:

• Learn which are the two most common conditions that account for 90% of shoulder problems
• Learn how to assess shoulder joint function, as well as the functional units that affect shoulder integrity
• Learn what available treatments exist and how to incorporate them effectively in your approach to managing shoulder problems
• Learn shoulder rehabilitation protocols and how to strengthen specific shoulder girdle stabilizers
• Practice all taught material, so you can use them right away
• Get all available research and related literature documentation
• Earn 6 CPD points awarded by the European Academy of Chiropractic (EAC)
