RX MOVEMENT · Coral Gables
Shoulder pain can limit everything from reaching overhead and sleeping on your side to pressing, serving, and swinging a club. Most shoulder problems improve with a well-structured plan that restores motion first and then rebuilds strength through the whole range.
At RX MOVEMENT we combine hands-on treatment, dry needling when appropriate, and targeted strength work for the rotator cuff, shoulder blade, and upper back. Every plan is built around what you need your shoulder to do, whether that is lifting, tennis, golf, swimming, or carrying your kids.
After surgery, we follow your surgeon's protocol and guide you all the way back to full strength, then keep progressing with performance training if you want to go further.
What We Treat
Tendon irritation and many rotator cuff tears that respond to rehab.
Pain lifting your arm overhead or reaching behind you.
Clicking, catching, or instability in lifters, swimmers, and racquet players.
Stiff, painful shoulders that have lost motion over time.
Rehab after rotator cuff repair, labral repair, or stabilization.
Pressing, overhead, serve, and swing-related shoulder pain.
Your Plan
Every plan is built by a Doctor of Physical Therapy and strength coach, and it keeps going past pain-free, all the way to performance. You'll see the same physical therapist at every visit, never switched or handed off.
Common Questions
Many rotator cuff problems, including some tears, improve with physical therapy. Whether surgery is needed depends on the type of tear, your symptoms, and your goals, so we coordinate with your physician when that decision comes up.
It depends on the problem. Many non-surgical shoulder issues improve over several weeks of consistent work, while post-surgical rehab often takes several months. We will give you an honest estimate after your evaluation.
No. Florida law allows you to see a physical therapist directly, without a physician referral, for the first 30 days of care.
