Workout Injury

During a bench press workout I injured my shoulder and was taken to the emergency room where they assumed I dislocated my shoulder. Over the course of a month I was seen by emergency room doctors, my family doctor, a walk in doctor, 2 ultrasounds technicians, a massage therapist and another physiotherapist but my arm was not healing. I contacted Elyse and through a virtual assessment she determined that I had actually torn my pec major tendon. After emergency surgery to reattach the tendon, Elyse was instrumental in getting my mobility and strength back. She understood the level of strength that my Crossfit style fitness routine demanded for a safe return and got me there feeling stronger than I had before the injury. If you are an athlete, I wouldn’t go to any other physiotherapist.
