Shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand pain

Physical Therapy in Denver, CO

From a nagging rotator cuff to elbow pain that flares every time you pick up a coffee cup, upper extremity injuries have an outsized effect on daily life — they touch nearly everything you do with your hands.

At Revo, a Doctor of Physical Therapy spends a full 60 minutes evaluating not just the joint that hurts, but the shoulder blade mechanics, posture, and movement patterns that often drive the problem. We use motion capture and EMG when needed to see exactly what's happening during the movements that bother you most.

This is one of our specialized physical therapy services. See our full Physical Therapy approach in Denver.

Our approach

Assess

A full movement and strength evaluation to understand your history, your goals, and how your pain is actually behaving.

Analyze

When needed, we use motion capture and EMG to quantify what's happening during running, jumping, or return-to-sport movements.

“Revo has been outstanding throughout my rehab. I came in with a difficult shoulder injury, and the team quickly figured out what was going on and built a plan that moved the needle. Their approach is thoughtful, effective, and focused on getting you back to full strength. I could not recommend them more.”

“I’ve been dealing with chronic shoulder and neck pain for many years and have seen countless doctors, PTs, chiropractors, and specialists. Matt and the REVO team have definitely stood out. Every session has been intentional and results-based instead of the typical quick check-in and then going through a list of exercises to repeat. Their blend of physical therapy and personal training has made all the difference.”

Return

A clear return-to-sport or return-to-activity plan, not just "how do you feel today."

“I worked with the Revo team for about 6 months for nagging knee and shoulder pain. I had a wonderful experience working with Ryan and Matthew. From the initial evaluation, I felt listened to and understood, and never felt like I was getting a “cookbook” treatment plan. Everything was tailored to whatever I needed each season and that varied week to week. I haven’t been able to run without pain in years, and I am so grateful to be able to do so now. I left with a sense of confidence and strength that I wasn’t expecting to gain, as well as tools to mitigate future issues should they arise. I’m very grateful for my experience with the Revo team and would recommend them without hesitation!”
