The story
A high school volleyball player came to IMTI with a right shoulder labral tear after a dislocation. He had significant range of motion deficits, restricted rotation and abduction, and movement pattern compensations. Through targeted soft tissue work, mobility restoration and movement retraining, he returned to full overhead function in just 3 sessions. He was able to continue his season without risking further injury.
Key focus areas
- Shoulder mobility & stability
- Soft tissue therapy
- Movement pattern correction
- Return-to-play readiness
The result
Full overhead function. No surgery. Back in the game.
