Why All Painful Shoulders Are Impinged & the Evidence Behind Their Treatment
Copyright :
Are all painful shoulders impinged? And what do we mean when we use the term “impingement”?
Impingement is a widely-used term in clinical practice for treating shoulder pain. Occasionally the term is used as a diagnostic directive because it has a diagnosis code for administrative purposes. However, it is important to identify the difference between primary verses secondary impingement pathology.
In this recording, veteran speaker and therapist, Terry Trundle, pinpoints why all hypo-mobile shoulder disorders are impinged and a functional formula for treatment for all phases of recovery. The evidence-based data of the presentation will explain, as Mr. Trundle states, “how much to do without doing too little and avoiding doing too much while understanding the evidence of application between these two points."
Terry Trundle, ATC, LAT, PTA, has over 38 years of experience in clinical practice and offers educational programs on functional rehabilitation focusing on the upper and lower kinetic chain. He practices in the Atlanta area where he is the Owner and Director of the Athletic Rehab Institute and Sports Medicine. In addition, he serves as a rehab consultant for Benchmark Physical Therapy and as Chair of the Advisory Board for the annual Rehab Summit.
Mr. Trundle's research has been featured in numerous journals and publications, and he has received awards and recognitions by the American Physical Therapy Association and Medical College of Georgia as a leader in the field. Most recently, he authored a chapter on orthopedic management of the shoulder in Fundamental Orthopedic Management for the Physical Therapist Assistant. He is the co-producer of a four-part video series that includes exercises on the knee and shoulder and passive micro-mobility of the upper and lower kinetic chains.
