I've had quite a few patients recently with rotator cuff related shoulder pain who thought they would need surgery to get them better. I thought it might be helpful to post this video I put together explaining why most of these patients will get a great result without having to have an operation. If you would like to have a physiotherapy assessment for shoulder pain, you can call Evidence-Based Therapy Centre on 091 727777 https://www.ebtc.ie/video-what-you-need-to-know-about-rotator-cuff-related-shoulder-pain/

A great endorsement for our Bone-Builders and Balance Class with Chartered Physiotherapist Sylvia Farrell. Marcella was diagnosed with osteopenia 25 years ago and has had numerous Dexa-Scans over the years increasing in frequency to every 2 years in recent times. All scan results showed osteopenia until her most recent scan a couple of weeks ago which showed NORMAL bone density👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Osteopenia is the loss of bone mineral density and a precursor of osteoporosis. Marcella started attending the class almost 2 years ago and reported this as the only change in her routine. She eats a healthy diet and takes VitD supplements. We do strength and resistance training, balance work, posture exercises, stretches and pilates in the class. She is not the only client to improve their bone density. In the past 3 months another lady’s Dexa scan went from osteopenia to normal and a third lady’s bone density changed from osteoporosis to osteopenia! 🔸🔸🔸New block of classes starting at 11.30 on September 10th for 8 weeks, call 091-727777 for further details🔸🔸🔸 If you would like to read more about osteoporosis and the class click on this link https://www.ebtc.ie/physiotherapy-for-osteoporosis-the-balance-and-bone-builders-programme/

💥REST IS NOT REHAB💥 This is true for most physiotherapy presentations we see at EBTC but particularly so for tendon problems. Tendinopathy can present in many different areas of the body including the knees, hips, hamstrings, shoulders, elbows, heels and feet. We know from strong evidence that tendons respond to LOAD. This is why tendon pain typically does not get better with rest, and this is why a structured rehabilitation programme is required to resolve tendon issues. Is your pain or injury not getting better with rest? Do you think you might be experiencing tendon pain? Call 091-727777 to book an appointment with one of our specialist physiotherapy team at EBTC Galway.
