VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Hi, I'm Dr. Kirkham. Welcome to our office. Our goals today are to speak with you, to get to know you better, figure out exactly what you're struggling with, and see what we can or can't do to help you. Since you're watching this video, like many, you're probably struggling with chronic shoulder pain and stiffness. Shoulder pain is a very common condition that comes into our office. Most causes of shoulder pain include rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, sprain/strain injuries, sports injuries, and even posture problems. These problems can prevent you from normal daily activities, things like carrying groceries or holding your grandkid, or even simple things like raising your arm or combing your hair. If that's the case, you're in the right place. In our office, rather than medicating symptoms, we use a comprehensive approach of the latest technologies, treatments, and therapies to address the underlying cause of shoulder pain. Although there are many causes of shoulder pain, the most common cause I find is posture related. We live life forward. We're on cellphones, on computers, we're sitting in recliners. It's this forward posture of the shoulder that stresses the tendons of the shoulder and it causes them to lose blood supply and it can tear. We have a specialized process to not only help the shoulder problem, but also the underlying cause of it. Unfortunately, too many people rely on drugs, injections, and surgery only to have their shoulder problems progress rather than working on the underlying cause, the mechanical problem of the shoulder and the spine. That's where we come in. We offer a non-invasive holistic approach so we can address all of the possible underlying issues that are causing your shoulder pain so you can get back to living pain-free. During today's visit, if we find you're a candidate for care, we will do a trial treatment. You will know today whether or not we can help you. If we can move the needle just 10% today, then we're confident we'll be able to help you.100% of the patients we accept will feel change on day one. Again, I'm Dr. Kirkham. I look forward to meeting you. In the meantime, watch these testimonials from people just like you. I couldn't reach up into the kitchen cabinet to get a cup. I had a real difficult time just brushing my teeth, combing my hair. I couldn't do regular yard work, washing a vehicle, using a broom. I mean, anything that involved movement of the shoulder was very painful and very limited before I came in. I couldn't lift my arm past there. I mean, I could get it up, but I'd have to take both hands and get it up. Once I got it up here, I could use them above my head. But then when I let it down, it was just I mean, it was just painful. I couldn't raise my, I couldn't raise my arm any higher than this on my right-hand side. And the pain was pretty, pretty intense and couldn't get a good sleep, couldn't figure out how to lay so your shoulder didn't hurt and Anti-inflammatories didn't help. Went to a cortisone shot, lasted maybe a week. I was amazed at the results. I, I have actually more motion back in my right shoulder than the one that I had the surgery on. It actually brought me back to where I am now. Got me back almost 100%. So that's where I'm at today. It's amazing because The pain is just gone. Uh, my range of motion is just far better than it ever was. I'm just a new person. Uh, I can sleep now. It's just not something that's just all day long going, "Oh, my shoulder. "But, uh, yeah, it's, it's changed my life. I can't It's Yeah. It's kind of emotional because I've fought with it for about 3, 4 years. It just kept getting worse and worse. He's one of a kind. It's non-invasive. It does not hurt. The results are amazing. Just to be able to ha-have a recovery that's not surgery involved, it's just a miracle to me. It's like a new lease on life.
