AVOID SURGERY FOR SHOULDER PAIN

A simple movement cures rotator cuff problems 90% of the time in less than 5 minutes.

Loren Fishman, MD, world-class rehabilitation physician, has pioneered a physical maneuver almost everyone can easily do. In two peer-reviewed, published clinical trials* this method completely cured 583 out of 620 patients with shoulder pain by the end of the first session. A few patients needed a little more treatment. Only about 10% of patients found the maneuver ineffective. If you have shoulder pain that turns out to be a rotator cuff problem, Dr. Fishman can help.

"Thanks to the expertise of Dr. Fishman, I avoided the need to have rotator cuff surgery on both shoulders by executing a simple physical exercise. That was five years ago. I haven't had trouble since."

-- Sharon Williams, Director of Development, Dance Theatre of Harlem
