Training turned Recovery Blog



Big day...almost 24 hrs to the minute of when i injured the shoulder. Decided something had to be done in the interim as my ortho appt with Dr Yach wasn't until NEXT tuesday. Felt like i needed an unbiased opinion from someone who sees this kind of thing all the time. I knew the PT's at Movewell had a shorter clinical day so....emailed Carla Brash, co-owner of Kingston Athletic Therapy, and after a few msgs back and forth secured an appt for a cosult with Rhea.

I can't rave enough about the experience. Very appropriate assessment and extremely effective treatment inclusive of muscle release, passive ROM, taping and ice. The taping is what i was really looking for and all the rest was bonus. We talked shop and have come to the following conclusion...subluxed shoulder and third to fourth degree AC joint separation. Treatment.....tape the heck out of the AC joint.....feeels Soooooooo good right now. Query regarding sulcus anteriorly...appt with specialist will address in a week. Quite happy to get back into my daily routine now ;) Check out these before and after photos.....why people wait before seeking treatment.......don't get me started....why don't ER docs recommend PT IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!
