PRO Shoulder Support®
Designed for post-surgical rehabilitation, overhead athletes, individuals recovering from injury or experiencing arthritis, and anytime relief, this support helps with shoulder pain, soreness and muscle fatigue.
After surgery, injury or athletic performance, some people experience pain due to gravity pulling on the arm since the fatigued or injured muscles can't properly stabilize the shoulder.
By cradling the shoulder joint in a healthy position, the PRO Shoulder Support® counteracts the weight of the arm, helping decrease pain and soreness.

Relieve and Recover
The PRO Shoulder Support counteracts gravity to help reduce strain on the shoulder joint and improve blood flow to the rotator cuff.
How Does the PRO Shoulder Support Work?
By elevating and decompressing the shoulder joint it counteracts gravity and the weight of the arm, which helps decrease pain and soreness. By positioning your arm away from your body, it also allows greater blood flow to the rotator cuff muscles, which helps speed recovery.

About Dianne Cortese, PT, DPT
Creator of the PRO Shoulder Support
Dianne Cortese, PT, DPT, noticed after post-surgical patients could remove their slings, they experienced pain due to how gravity pulls on the arm, straining the shoulder joint. She noticed a similar effect in baseball players, post-performance, when the rotator cuff was too fatigued to do its job: stabilizing the shoulder joint. Her answer was the PRO Shoulder Support - carefully designed to cradle the shoulder joint of athletes, post-surgical patients, and anyone with a sore or fatigued shoulder.
