Reaching New Heights in Shoulder Rehabilitation:

Actionable assessment, objective evaluation & exercise prescription – Shoulder Rehabilitation Masterclass

Designed for clinicians working with active populations and climbers, this comprehensive course bridges
the gap between the evidence base, practical objective testing, and real-world exercise prescription.
Participants will explore advanced clinical reasoning for shoulder pathologies, master objective strength
and performance evaluation tools, and learn tailored rehabilitation strategies ranging from complex
hypermobility and neuropathic pain to late-stage climbing-specific strength training.

Through interactive case studies, practical testing, and group scenarios, clinicians will leave equipped with
actionable proformas and practical frameworks ready for immediate clinical application.

Key Topics Covered:
 Shoulder Pathologies & Red Flags: Differential diagnosis, screening tools, malignancy, inflammatory
conditions, and visceral masquerades.
 Shared Decision-Making (SDM) in Rotator Cuff Related Pain (RCRP): Conservative vs. surgical
outcomes, prognostic factors, and tactical evidence deployment.
 Objective Strength &Performance Evaluation: Handheld dynamometry (HHD), rate of force
development (RFD), isometric metrics, and functional performance tests (FPTs).
 Climbing-Specific &Late-Stage Rehabilitation: Energy system specificity in exercise prescription,
late-stage strengthening, and kinetic chain considerations.
 Hypermobility & Complex Instability: Reframing the "clumsy patient," motor control, primitive
reflexes, and top-down vs. bottom-up sensory integration.
 Neuropathic Pain & Complex Cases: Assessment and practical management of neuropathic
shoulder presentations.

Ellie’s academic CV includes publishing as lead author in The BMJ Sports and Exercise Medicine on the role of the kinetic chain in shoulder rehabilitation, co-authoring & participating in an international consensus Delphi study on the same topic, co-authoring the ShoulderDoc “Shoulder Rehabilitation” online e-book and contributing to the recently published “The Shoulder Theory and Practice” textbook by Lewis and Fernandez. 

Ellie is also passionate about teaching & has been invited to lecture at numerous specialist conferences including The British Mountaineering & Climbing’s annual injury symposium, The British Shoulder & Elbow Society’s annual scientific conferences, Therapy Live’s virtual annual event, the North West Education Academy conferences, Liverpool Hope’s International biennial Shoulder Rehabilitation conference & the annual London Shoulder Study Day. 

Ellie is also a former elite athlete who has represented Scotland, Great Britain and Spanish Trade teams in track cycling at numerous international events including the Commonwealth Games, the European Track Cycling Championships & the Track Cycling World Cup.
