As some of you may have heard I will be on medical leave starting on Monday July 25th, following surgery for SLAP tear. A SLAP tear involves a tear to the labrum in the shoulder that runs across the superior (top) from the anterior (front) to posterior (back). The labrum is a dense connective tissue ring that deepens the socket on the shoulder blade where the ball of the humerus (upper arm bone) sits. Imagine a rubber ring sitting on top of a golf tee with a golf ball balanced on top. Several months ago I hurt my shoulder, embarrassingly enough…while napping.
I have exhausted my conservative therapy options and unfortunately I have not been able restore full function. While I won’t be able to provide massage therapy during my recovery I will be at the gym continuing with the Corrective Exercise and Personal Training. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need a referral or would like to start a corrective exercise program.
