“I had pain in my right shoulder that persisted for two years. After working with Greg for a few months my shoulder was not only healed but stronger than ever. I appreciate Greg’s thorough approach and the fact that he has consistently given me exercises that I could do at home.” -Kathy Adorney

Shoulder pain can be an unrelenting problem that just doesn’t seem to go away. It can drain you of your energy and can take your focus away from enjoying your life as you should be. It can cause many sleepless nights which can affect your overall health. All of this can lead to stress, frustration, depression and changes in your life that prevent you from doing what you want. Even worse, it can become a bigger problem if ignored.

If you’ve tried other things without results and if you’re confused about what to do and looking for answers, here’s some of what you’ll learn:

•  The #1 mistake many people make
•  3 simple ways you can help yourself
•  The difference between pain/sensitivity vs. tissue problems
•  What successful treatment and relief looks like without the side effects of surgery, injections or medications
