Upper Extremity Therapy

## Restoring Complex Joint Mechanics
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body, relying on a delicate network of muscles, tendons, and ligaments (the rotator cuff) for stabilization. Because of this complexity, upper extremity injuries require highly specialized, precision-focused care.

At Dosher Physical Therapy, we understand the nuances of upper extremity mechanics. Whether you are dealing with chronic impingement, “tennis elbow,” or facing a long road to recovery after a labral repair, our therapists use a combination of gentle joint mobilization, soft tissue techniques, and progressive strengthening to safely rebuild your joint stability without re-injury.

### Post-Surgical Care

Recovering from a rotator cuff or labral repair requires strict adherence to post-operative protocols. Do not delay your aftercare. We work directly with your surgeon’s guidelines.
