I work with two little boys who are disabled one of them is able to walk, while the other is not, currently we are trying to strengthen their trunks to help them maintain and gain balance as well as attempting to strengthen their arms and help them use their hands does anyone know of any sites where I can get any information on physical therapy exercises that I can do with them to help them achieve these goals? Anything you may know would be a huge help! Thanks!

for over 2 months now i have had pain in my back, next to my shoulder blade. its on the left, inside, towards my spine. its a sore/tender and very severe pain. its only painful when i move a certain way, upright and rotate my shoulder. i’ve been to the doc several times, and physical therapy. no change, its not worse but also not better. the next step would be an MRI, i guess. the pain can radiate to my neck, and underarm also, usually after i work (i do heavy lifting). some people have said it is a strained muscle, but wouldn’t that be better by now? others have said it could be a torn muscle, or even a pinched nerve. anyone ever had and experience like this?
i should add that this is a muscle specific pain. i can feel a knot and if i rub it, it gets better for a few minutes. the muscle there feels tender to the touch but only severe pain when i sit/stand upright and rotate my shoulder towards the back, it hits that spot and i feel like i’m gona cry. is there such a thing as a bruised muscle? is this what a torn muscle feels like? will an MRI even show info aobut a muscle problem?? help!!
i have been to a chiro, with no relief. also, the muscles in my neck and on the opposite side of my back are extremely tight. is this from compensation?? sorry so lengthly but i want to give as much info as possible.
Did anyone have prolotherapy or cortisone shot treatments for a torn rotor cuff, if so can you tell me how it worked out (good or bad). I really don’t want any surgery and standard physical therapy only made it worse. I’ve have had it for years, but now the pain is so bad and constant that I need to do something.
stions. I know i hate it when im in pain and when people are in pain and if i can do something to help I wanted do do that so today it just hit me. Why no physical therapy? I jus wanted to know all about it?Doctorate or Masters-What wpuld be the difference? How long do you have to go to school? What are the best places to go to school for this? Anyone actually a therapist reading this? How long would i have to work on average? Everything you know. The problem is that ive never seen myself as being in the medical profession, because i dont like blood and thats all my parents and family want everyone to do. I wnat to do something different and i dont want to go my life stressed out when i can help in a different way.
