Learn how to reduce pain and resume an active life.

So, you or someone you care about is having severe stiffness, pain and restricted motion of the shoulder.  First, you should know that you are not alone.  The shoulder is the most versatile and mobile joint in the human body with multiple degrees of freedom.  As such, life takes its toll and wear and tear or injury can lead to frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis.  Often times online sites and doctors will claim that it just takes about two years to heal and that there is not much you can do for it.  At BreakThrough, our therapists utilize a unique combination of manual skills, education and exercise instruction to help you return to your desired lifestyle much quicker and without excessive pain.

If you are not sure what to do about your shoulder, but want an easy, cost and time effective way to help ensure you take the right steps towards your future, guided by an expert; check out our Telehealth and Virtual Health Consultation (VHC) Services

Our skilled physical therapists have a vested interest in you and your ability to participate in the activities you desire.  We find that taking a comprehensive approach to your care rather than just treating symptomatically enables us to help you rectify all the deficits and components that are leading to your frozen shoulder.  At BreakThrough, we help reduce your need for oral medications, injections or surgical intervention, saving you time and money.

What’s the Buzz?

My daughter developed a stress fracture due to over-training and lack of proper guidance. She had to sit out her sophomore season and we were afraid her running career would be over. Her self-confidence was way down and we had serious concerns, but thanks to BreakThrough she is “back on track” and continuously improving her times as well as enjoyment for cross country. Thank you!

My shin splints were killing me and I had to pull out of my last race. Thanks to Prina helped me avoid needing a boot and really being on the sidelines. I am now increasing my mileage and am so excited to have the support of your Sports Performance Program!

I PR’ed this weekend and I cannot thank Irina enough for all the hard work and dedication she put in to help me accomplish my goal!!
