Physical Therapy For Shoulder
Becky Said:
What should I wear to physical therapy for my shoulder/back?We Answered:
Shock em, go naked!! :D ha habut if you insist on getting dressed, I would say sweat pants and a loose t-shirt. They will probably bend you around some in order to stretch your back so the sweat pants will leave you some flexability, where as jeans or slacks could b to tight and impede your movement.
btw...like the new nick!

Physical therapy question Shoulder pain blood flow etc?We Answered:
First, I'd like to comment that US has not been shown to have any effectiveness in shoulder problems (or anything else for that matter). Second, was it the gel that caused the pain or the application of the US? When I DID use to use ultrasound, some patients complained of pain when I used a frequency that goes deeper. It's now been demonstrated that ultrasound does not always sonnate to the depth we think it does...in otherwords, it's inconsistent. Therefore, the frequency may have been at a level that goes too deep for you (I'm not implying that it was the PTs fault, just that its too hard to predict how deep it goes).Josephine Said:
physical therapy for shoulder?We Answered:
Your first visit will mostly be a history taking session and a chance for the PT to establish baselines for mobility and strength. Some of the procedures that will be done tomorrow may provoke pain, and I always instruct people that if they are in pain after the evaluation that they may use a cold pack that evening. Please note that it's not our intention to leave you in pain, but that the first visit might produce some pain. Most people, however, walk away not feeling any worse than they were when they walked in. The intention of those tests are to establish what types of tissues are injured.As far as subsequent visits, Musculoskeletal makes a good point, your therapy should not include only passive modalities (which really have no long term effect). Rather your program should seek to restore tissue that has become abnormal. There will be some discomfort with the program...but I always follow the no worse rule. Pain that is increased or produced during certain movements is OK, but it should return to your baseline after the movement is complete.
You should be fine if you take into consideration these things. Just be aware that rotator cuff problems can take noctoriously long to heal, sometimes a year...not that you'll need to be in therapy that long, but that full recovery (if possible) can take a long time.
Good luck.
