I’ve treated thousands with shoulder pain and seen how it limits work, family time, and everyday tasks. Many rely on medication, injections, or even surgery, but these only mask the pain. As Pinecrest’s leading shoulder expert, I help people regain motion, strength, and a pain-free life—naturally.
I’ve treated thousands of people with shoulder pain and have noticed the devastating impact the condition can have on your everyday life. It could affect your social life, where you don’t want to leave the house for fear of worsening the pain. It could affect your work, where you can’t work as productively as you once did, impacting your livelihood and your ability to provide for your family.
It can also affect your family life because if you’re in pain then you’re likely to be irritable, have low mood, and a lack of energy. Playing with your kids can be increasingly difficult and even putting on a shirt or reaching for an item from the top shelf can cause intense shooting pains. If you love playing sports, it’s going to severely restrict the activities you can participate in because you can’t use your shoulder.
To combat this, people try a variety of different treatment methods – with varying degrees of success. Some try to leave it alone, not touch it, and hope it goes away on its own. Unfortunately, this will not resolve your shoulder pain long-term, and any discomfort alleviated in the short term will return stronger than ever once you return to your regular activities.
Some rely on pain medication; others receive injections every few months but both only mask the symptoms and do nothing to resolve the root cause of the issue. You may have even considered surgery but there is no guarantee this intervention will provide the relief you’re looking for.
As the leading shoulder pain expert in Pinecrest, I have helped people the natural way. I have helped people gain motion, lose pain, improve strength, and return to work, return to playing sports, return to family life, and use their arm fully and functionally.
It’s difficult to exercise when you’re in constant pain but this staff makes it so doable! There is always a great energy in the room and I genuinely enjoy going to PT. My therapists, Natalie and Luis, are absolute sweethearts and I can tell they really care about the progress of all their patients. They make me feel very comfortable and safe that I won’t injure my back further. They are happy to explain and answer any questions I may have. Everyone at Progressive is a joy to be around. The front desk staff are so kind and the owner, Greg, makes sure to say hello to everyone and ask how they’re doing. Today, Greg offered to put me on a specific bed where I could watch the Olympics while I did some stretches! What a kind and thoughtful staff! My back is feeling great, I highly recommend progressive therapy center 🙂

Absolutely love this place and the people who work here. It’s a hidden gem. I have been coming here since May after my shoulder surgery for rotator cuff tear. It was a very slow and painful process in the beginning. However, these guys were there with me every step of the way to support me and guide me. It’s October now and I have full motion back in my right arm. I could never have done it without them and their amazing therapy sessions. Thank you for all for your hard work and dedication.
