In Sport Therapy for the Shoulder: Evaluation, Rehabilitation, and
Return to Sport, readers will learn about best practices and
evidence-based guidelines for assessing and treating patients'
shoulder injuries for re-entry into sport. Written by renowned
physical therapists Todd S. Ellenbecker and Kevin E. Wilk, this
text is a key resource for physical therapists, athletic trainers,
sport chiropractors, massage therapists, strength and conditioning
professionals, personal trainers, and other clinicians in sports
medicine who work with patients recovering from shoulder injuries.
Sport Therapy for the Shoulder guides readers systematically
through functional anatomy and biomechanics of the shoulder,
examination techniques and pathology, rehabilitation, and
return-to-play progressions. The text provides evidence-based
principles to assist clinicians in improving joint stabilization,
strength, muscular endurance, and range of motion in the shoulder.
Return-to-sport programs feature step-by-step progressions for
sports including baseball, softball, golf, swimming, and tennis.
Illustrated versions of the Thrower's Ten and Advanced Thrower's
Ten exercise programs, which were developed by coauthor Kevin E.
Wilk and colleagues, are provided in the appendix. The content is
enhanced by more than 200 color photos and detailed illustrations
that provide visual support and context for conducting specific
evaluation and rehabilitation techniques. Additionally, 21 online
video clips are available to complement the highly visual book and
demonstrate how to perform specific evaluation tests. An image bank
is available free to course adopters and is also available for
professionals to purchase separately for use in presentations. The
combination of foundational information, evidence-based guidelines,
sport-specific return-to-sport programs, online videos, and
colorful visual aids makes Sport Therapy for the Shoulder a
must-have resource for clinicians who work with patients who have
shoulder injuries. Not only will the book prove to be a valuable
learning tool, but it will also be a reference that professionals
can use continually in their practice.
