Shoulder

Tendons are tough bands of fibrous connective tissue that connect muscle to bone. Fascia, connective tissue comprised of collagen like tendons, is responsible for maintaining structural integrity, providing support and protection, and acting as a shock absorber.

Shoulders are utilized in sport activities that involve repetitive overhead motion, such as golf, swimming, and throwing. Similarly, activities of daily living, such as washing windows, gardening, or lifting objects, also involve repetitive overhead arm movement.
