Hi


I had an accident few years ago - shoulder joint injury - basically i was not able to move my hand about 3 weeks, and there was no big problem with it, but now i changed a job and im in sitting position all day long and i noticed that this arm is much weaker than second one and im having some trouble with it so i would like to see some therapist.

Do you have any contacts for some good physio therapist ?

please tel me know

thanks

What exactly are you doing while sitting down that made you notice that one arm was weaker than the other???

Thanks a mil for yours reply,

At the moment im working in office and sitting at the desk all day long, so im nearly not to move my hand/arm.

I noticed that i dont lift my arm up to do smt i rather keep her close to body and work just with my wrist and lower arm, it bugs me now as i can see my shoulder bones sticking out on my shoulder etc,


and lads how much did you pay for visit ?

I found Aidan Wood to be quite good. He's a physio with the Irish Athletics team. 01 6334 035.


The normal price is abour €50 for 45min session, but it's well worth it and you can claim it back if you're with VHI/BUPA I think it's up to 8 visits per year.

Sitting at a desk - at a computer?


If so, buy one of these:

Almost the best money you'll ever spend.
