Restore Strength and Mobility to Your Shoulder
Shoulder pain can make everyday tasks—like reaching overhead, lifting objects, or even getting dressed—difficult and uncomfortable. Whether due to injury, arthritis, or overuse, we offer a full range of treatment options, from physical therapy and injections to advanced arthroscopic and reconstructive shoulder surgeries. At Madrid Ortho NYC, we customize your care to restore function, reduce pain, and help you return to the activities you love.
How the Shoulder Joint Works
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, allowing you to lift, rotate, and reach in nearly every direction. It’s a ball-and-socket joint where the head of the humerus fits into the shallow socket of the scapula, stabilized by a network of ligaments, tendons, and muscles—including the rotator cuff. This complex design provides exceptional range of motion but also makes the shoulder more vulnerable to injury. Understanding how your shoulder functions helps us create personalized treatment plans to restore strength, stability, and pain-free movement.
Common Shoulder Conditions We Treat
We diagnose and treat a wide range of knee issues — from sports injuries to degenerative joint conditions.
Non-Surgical Relief for Shoulder Pain
Many knee conditions can be treated successfully without surgery. We take a conservative-first approach whenever possible, using therapies that support healing, restore movement, and manage pain.
If non-surgical treatments are no longer effective, we offer advanced surgical solutions—many of which are minimally invasive or robotically assisted. Our goal is faster recovery, improved function, and less postoperative pain.
