How's your posture? Poor posture can damage your back if not corrected in time. Pull those shoulders back and stand/sit proudly!
The shoulder joint joins two bones - the shoulder blade (scapula) and the upper arm bone (humerus). Your shoulder can become unstable because the ball of the upper arm bone is larger than the shoulder socket that holds it. This instability can lead to dislocations, sprains, torn rotator cuffs and other shoulder conditions. Don't suffer in pain, call us to schedule an appointment today.
