Opening Address: Why Some Shoulder Patients Don’t Get Well
Terry Malone PT, Ed.D., ATC, FAPTA
Although we live in the world of evidence-based medicine, it is not uncommon for some patients with shoulder pathologies to not have an easily predicted response to intervention. You, as the clinician, will find that some of these patients will have a limited response to treatment and we should be careful to not believe that a lack of return visits implies resolution of problems. Many shoulder patients do follow a predicted pathway, but those that don’t require a greater awareness and selectivity of approach—challenging all concerned. This presentation will provide context for this process; neurological, structural, and psychological concepts; and treatment approaches for these patients.
