Chapters & Learning Objectives
Chapter 1: Evidence and Introduction to Shoulder Complex
: 19:45 Hour
This chapter lays a strong foundational base by addressing the clinical relevance and current evidence surrounding shoulder dysfunctions. The speakers explore the epidemiology, clinical patterns, and pathomechanics of common shoulder conditions. You’ll gain insight into the evolving understanding of shoulder pathologies and why a holistic, evidence-based approach is essential in orthopaedic and sports settings.
Chapter 7 (May, 2025)- Beyond The Frozen Shoulder Course
: 3 Hour
Chapter 2: Anatomy and Biomechanics of Shoulder Complex
: 15:50 Hour
Delving into the structural intricacies of the shoulder, this chapter covers the osseous, muscular, and neurovascular anatomy alongside functional biomechanics. The discussion is clinically oriented to help practitioners understand movement dysfunctions and compensatory patterns, laying the groundwork for both assessment and treatment strategies.
Chapter 3: Palpation and Assessment of Shoulder Complex
: 32:06 Hour
A practical and in-depth guide to manual palpation techniques and clinical assessments, this chapter emphasizes precise anatomical localization and functional testing. From special tests to dynamic palpation cues, participants are trained to identify pathological findings, movement restrictions, and subtle tissue dysfunctions with confidence and clinical accuracy.
Chapter 4: Types and Screening of Shoulder Injuries
: 29:27 Hour
This chapter focuses on identifying and differentiating various shoulder injury types, including rotator cuff injuries, labral pathologies, impingement syndromes, and instability patterns. It also highlights screening protocols for athletes and active populations to guide clinicians in early detection and injury risk stratification.
Chapter 5_ _Rehabilitation For Shoulder Injuries
: 37:40 Hour
A step-by-step rehabilitation roadmap, this chapter provides a detailed view of phase-wise rehab strategies, including early-stage mobility, strengthening, neuromuscular control, and functional integration. Emphasis is placed on clinical progression criteria and evidence-based rehabilitation practices tailored for both orthopaedic patients and athletes.
Chapter 6: Return to Sports
: 11:04 Hour
The final chapter addresses the decision-making process for returning athletes to sport post shoulder injury. It includes functional testing, sport-specific movement screening, and guidelines for gradual return to performance. Risk factors for re-injury and long-term shoulder health are also covered to ensure a safe and sustainable return to play.
