Understanding Shoulder Injuries
Shoulder injuries often result from repetitive stress or an injury, leading to swelling, pain, and difficulty in performing movements such as walking, running, or jumping.
Symptoms And Their Impact
Symptoms of shoulder injuries can significantly affect your quality of life and may include:
- Persistent pain or discomfort in the affected area.
- Swelling and Tenderness: Around the affected area, which may worsen with activity.
- Tingling or numbness.
- Weakness or loss of strength.
- Reduced/Limited range of motion.
- Challenges with tasks requiring fine motor skills.
Early recognition and intervention are key to preventing the progression of symptoms and achieving optimal recovery outcomes.
What Causes Shoulder Injuries?
Injuries can be triggered by several factors, including:
Overuse and Repetitive Activities: This leads to overuse and stress on specific muscle groups.
Insufficient Recovery: From previous muscle injuries, causing weakened areas.
Previous injuries can lead to the formation of scar tissue or compensations.
Biomechanical Irregularities: Abnormal mechanics or structure can increase the risk.
Degenerative Changes: Wear and tear on the joint from aging or arthritis.
Lack of Conditioning: Weak muscles are more susceptible to injury.
Poor Posture or Technique: In daily activities or while engaging in sports.
Thorough Assessment
At ActivAxion, our customized plans of care focus on alleviating symptoms and addressing the root cause of your condition while most therapies focus on the symptoms only.
Our comprehensive evaluation process includes a detailed examination of the injured area, an assessment of your movement patterns to see your compensations, and a review of your medical history to accurately evaluate and understand the extent of your injury. We take a holistic approach and combine it with lifestyle advice. Figuring out what is contributing to your pain and why things haven’t been progressing for you will be key.

As a whole, Activ Axion is a very professional and modern physical rehabilitation center that prides itself not only by providing an excellent customer experience that translates into real results, but also in catering to a wide range of physical ailments with the latest technology. Additionally, you'll never have to worry about which therapist you will get, because they are all excellent at what they do. Not only do you get active treatment during your sessions, but follow-up content that includes stretches and exercises that are tailored to your needs, which incorporates both written and visual instructions. I have been getting treated by Mario for chronic pain in my hip and shoulder, and by the third visit those ailments were gone. I was truly impressed by his level of knowledge and the rapidity with which he is able to identify and treat the source of the problem. I cannot recommend both Activ Axion and Mario enough!Posted on Christina StalloneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had an amazing experience with Gabrielle Khreiche. She has been helping me with some postpartum issues after having had a c section. She’s attentive, caring and always willing to try something new with our treatments. I’m grateful to have met her. She gives me hope that things will get better. You won’t regret a session with her. She actually genuinely cares for her patients.Posted on Norman ArsenyanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Clinical knowledge is iof itmost important in the physical therpay setting and they have lots of it! Treatment options are tailored but not before doing a full body mapping to find the issues to tackle. Activ Axion is my go-to.Posted on Anoush GundjianTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Mario to anyone looking to clear up their physical ailments. My daughter was suffering from long-standing shin splints. Mario was very detailed and conscientious throughout his investigation and manipulations which not only healed her injury but also pin pointed weaknesses to be worked on. He sent us graphical and video demonstrations assisting her with at-home exercises. He did not force more treatment sessions than she actually needed. We feel very lucky to have found Mario as an Athletic Therapist!Posted on susan mouradTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't thank my athletic therapist Mario enough for the incredible care and expertise. After struggling with shoulder pain, he not only helped relieve my pain but guided me through a full recovery. His knowledge, attention to detail, and tailored treatment plan made all the difference. I'm now back to doing what I love, pain-free. Highly recommend Mario to anyone looking for real results and long-term healing!Posted on Jamie ElaloufTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
