Welcome to the USC Physical Therapy’s lab where shoulder injuries are our focus. Our mission is to advance the understanding, prevention, and treatment of shoulder injuries in athletes. Currently, we are conducting an innovative study aimed at individuals aged 18-55 who are experiencing shoulder pain, and we need your participation.
About the Study
This study is focused on shoulder pain caused by rotator cuff tendinopathy. We recognize that shoulder injuries are prevalent in many athletic and work daily activities, and through this research, we aim to uncover new insights that could lead to improved prevention and recovery methods.
Participation Details
Participating in this study involves a commitment of 5-6 visits to the USC Health Science Campus. During these visits, participants will engage in a series of physical assessments and therapy sessions with our expert team. These sessions are designed to gather data for the study while also providing valuable insights and treatments for the participants themselves.
