Abstract

Shoulder pathology is one of the most common causes of care in Orthopedics, being caused by multiple entities such as instability, rotator cuff injuries, osteoarthritis, adhesive capsulitis, among others, which can present several signs or symptoms, and that will require comprehensive management. One of the fundamental pillars in the management of shoulder pathology is physiotherapy. Technological advancements have allowed the advent of devices that help us improve the physiotherapy process. In this study, we share our experience with the use of the Shoulder Pacemaker®, a device designed to improve muscle balance in patients with shoulder pathology
