Comprehensive Shoulder Treatment Options
Shoulder pain can limit arm movement, reduce strength, and make everyday activities such as lifting, reaching, and sleeping more difficult. At Centeno-Schultz Clinic in Colorado Springs, patients are evaluated for a wide range of shoulder conditions, including rotator cuff injuries, tendon disorders, instability, and degenerative changes.
Based on each patient’s individual diagnosis, symptoms, and functional needs, our clinic offers non-surgical, image-guided and regenerative treatment options within interventional orthopedics.
