Contact us today for a free consultation! Our Board Certified Physicians (MD or DO) will determine if you are a candidate.
AROmotion combines an FDA approved procedure called radiofrequency neurotomy to disrupt the sensory nerves and stop the pain inside the ball joint of your shoulder. Chronic NERVE PAIN is not just a symptom, it is what perpetuates the cycle of toxic inflammation and arthritic cartilage destruction inside of the shoulder joint capsule. By disrupting this pain, the nerve pain induced toxic inflammatory proteins diminish and the joint capsule can finally calm down. Now, this healthier, more normalized joint microenvironment can better support the orthobiologic used to complement your natural healing factors. Finally, with the pain mitigated, physician directed strengthening and reconditioning of the shoulder muscles and ligaments can start immediately!
This is truly an alternative to shoulder replacement replacement surgery! We treat your problem, shoulder joint pain, AROmotion stops the pain, helps heal damaged joint cartilage and allows fast effective reconditioning of the shoulder muscles and ligaments. Remember, total shoulder replacement surgery, is a big operation that carries the inherent risk of anesthesia, surgery and hospital based infections. Remember, once they surgically cut out your natural shoulder joint and replace it with an implant, there is no going back. AROmotion is needle-based, so there is no big incision, no scarring or surgical recovery period. Saving your joint through AROmotion is a faster and safer way of treating your problem…arthritic shoulder joint pain. Get back to pain-free motion without surgery!
Shoulder Conditions We Treat
Rotator cuff tears are extremely common, and can occur as a result of trauma (like a fall) or worsen gradually due to natural wear and tear. The rotator cuff is a group of tendons and muscles that helps raise and rotate your arm. When one or more muscle or tendon is torn, you may experience weakness and pain with certain movements like on extension or reaching overhead. If your rotator cuff is the true problem, then an orthopedic surgeon will recommend arthroscopy to try and repair the tear.
However, If the orthopedic surgeon’s recommendation is for total shoulder replacement, then your problem is NOT the rotator cuff…it is actually the chronic arthritis inside of the the ball joint that is causing your pain! Arthritis is a general term for the disease that causes the wearing down of hyaline cartilage (the hard, slick coating that prevents the bones from grinding against each other). This is the same cartilage you will find at the end of a chicken bone. When this cartilage thins or wears down it is typically in tiny spots, like “potholes in your chicken bone cartilage”. The medical term for this is Chondromalacia. Any pressure on the joint from movement will then cause serious pain, because the nerve endings underneath are not protected.
AROmotion stops the pain coming from the weakened shoulder joint cartilage, helps heal this damaged cartilage and allows fast effective reconditioning of the shoulder muscles and ligaments. AROmotion fills this extreme void with a new option– a lasting solution that can stop the pain so you can keep your shoulder!
The labrum is cartilage that surrounds the outside rim of your shoulder joint socket. Its purpose is to keep the head of your humerus (your arm), secure within your shoulder. When this cartilage tears due to sudden injury (falling, dislocation, etc.) or degenerates over time. The weakened labrum results in a loose ball and socket joint. Over time the hard hyaline cartilage coating and protecting the surface of the bones in the loose ball and socket grind against each other and wear down the cartilage. Because bones under this hard cartilage have nerves, this worn down spots in the cartilage results in pain when moving and lifting your shoulder and arm. For example, reaching up to grasp a gallon of milk, the sense of weakness is actually secondary to pain inside of the ball joint not muscle tears. AROmotion stops the pain coming from the weakened joint cartilage, helps heal and allows fast effective reconditioning of the shoulder muscles and ligaments.
