Shoulder Pain & Injuries
Tuesday, September 18th at 7 PM!
Presented by Melissa Plumb PSc PT, CAFCI

Do you have a history of shoulder pain? Are you curious how you can try and prevent shoulder problems in the future? Maybe you are just interested in learning about the shoulder and common problems that exist.

Shoulder injuries and pain are common in all age groups. From sedentary desk workers and students to athletes, it is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems that causes an individual to seek medical treatment or to see a physiotherapist.

At Mackie Physiotherapy we offer a thorough assessment of your shoulder and surrounding areas (shoulder blade, neck and upper back) to determine the cause of your shoulder pain and provide a diagnosis. Based on our assessment findings we will formulate a treatment plan that will best help you manage your symptoms and help you on the road to recovery.

Workshop Details
During the workshop, Melissa will discuss the anatomy of the shoulder, reasons we can develop shoulder pain, and common conditions of the shoulder. She will spend time talking about ways you can manage and prevent shoulder problems with physiotherapy, acupuncture, and exercise programming.

As always, there will be promotional offers for those in attendance! We hope to see you and any friends that would enjoy an evening of entertainment and education.
