In part 1 of this mini shoulder masterclass with clinical physiotherapy specialist, Jo Gibson, we tackled a simple approach to assessing and diagnosing shoulder problems in athletes. Today, we launch into supporting the athlete to return to sport: key considerations? Which return to sport tests? How do you know when the athlete is ready to return? All this and more in part 2.
