Shoulder is one of the most reported body parts in experiencing pain among office workers in Singapore. With the prevalence of shoulder pain and injuries, a thorough understanding of multiple treatment options is imperative for every rehabilitation therapist.
Learning new methods to properly diagnose and treat both surgical and non-surgical shoulder cases can help to improve patient’s outcomes and provide long-lasting, positive results.
Join fellow allied health professionals in this one-day interprofessional symposium, to discuss and share recent advances on shoulder rehabilitation.
