Does your shoulder sting when you lift?
Shoulder pain that stings when you lift or keeps returning, eased with back posture in view. We choose among injections, manual therapy and FBT.
What we check first
We check shoulder movement with upper back posture.
Shoulder movement
We measure how far the arm lifts to find where it catches.
Back and shoulder posture
A rounded back often causes shoulder pain, so we look at both.
The right treatment after tests
Injections or manual therapy, whichever the tests point to.

Using imaging and diagnostic tools, we identify factors linked to the pain and build a treatment plan suited to your condition.
How we examine
We check where and how strongly it hurts and the movements you repeat in daily life, then look further with X-ray, ultrasound or X-BODY if needed.
Treatments we consider
We choose among collagen injections, PDRN, manual therapy and FBT.
Collagen injection
This injection uses type 1 collagen, the main component of tendons.
PDRN (Cellbean)
This injection uses PDRN made through a low-temperature purification process.
Manual therapy
Hands-on alignment of a rounded back and shoulders.
FBT (Functional Balance Therapy)
We find the imbalance from the upper back and restore shoulder movement.
