Shoulder Disorders and Treatment

    The complexity of the shoulder joint makes it susceptible to many injuries. There are 5 joints or articulations, 30 muscles and 8 ligaments that comprise the shoulder joint complex. There is the largest range of motion of any joint in the body and the movement occurs in 3 different planes. Understanding this anatomy and the various ways things can breakdown (pathomechanics) is important to develop a good treatment plan for resolution of the pain. Dr. Payne's background in biomedical engineering provides added insight to these complex relationships.  To explore some of the more common shoulder disorders and treatment options, please click on the links below.
