Shoulder Mobilizations and improving range of motion

Shoulder Mobilizations and improving range of motion


By applying the cup with massage cream and moving it across the muscle it can provide a neuro-physiological relaxation to the muscle and help improve the muscles usage during exercise and help with stretching.


It can be beneficial for smaller muscles in the rotator cuff that are too tender for a deep tissue massage.


It can also be helpful on the low back when the muscles have spasms or are too tender to massage.


We at South End PT can help determine if cupping is an appropriate modality for your rehabilitation and recovery!


Knee Arthritis

Arthritis is a common misunderstood word patients often hear from their doctors. Basically, it means swelling and tenderness of one or more of your joints, that may result in pain or achiness in the joint. Over time our understanding of this diagnosis has changed:

Myth - We used to think that this discomfort was due to structural loss of cartilage, or “wear and tear of the joint” resulting in irreversible damage that requires a knee replacement.


However new research has shown that this is a misleading hypothesis. We know now that with consistent, targeted exercise we can decrease symptoms of achiness and pain. Targeted exercise has also been shown to prolong or prevent the need for surgical intervention. 

Exercise is a form of medicine and it can prevent and treat over 25 chronic conditions 

Surgical intervention should be your last resort: A knee replacement is tough! It’s not the easy way out and takes months of rehab. It is very important to participate in prehab to strengthen the joint prior to a knee replacement.
