If you suffer from throwing pain, if you’re dealing with shoulder or elbow pain when you throw, you’ve probably tried a lot of things. You’ve likely tried rest, ice, and some exercises. Maybe you’ve worked with Jaeger bands or tried some electrical stimulation. In my experience, though, these rarely provide a lasting fix for the problem.
I understand that you or your child might be feeling down and frustrated. If the things you’ve tried aren’t working, then you owe it to yourself or to them to see a professional with a proven track record of helping athletes get past this type of injury.
If you’re struggling with poor throwing velocity or command, you’ve probably tried numerous approaches – maybe weighted balls, long toss, or working with specialized coaches. Some of these might have worked to some extent, but what if I told you that poor velocity and command are actually symptoms of a larger underlying issue?
During lessons, your coach might tell you to get your arm here, place your leg there, or position your body just so. Sometimes you might be able to do it, and other times not. The problem is that there are mechanical constraints that prevent you from getting into these positions consistently.
Your body might not yet have the physical ability to do what the coach is asking. You may lack the flexibility, the strength, or the dynamic control. Addressing these foundational areas is key.
That’s what we examine with the BASE-3 Exam – the Biomechanical Athletic Strength Examination. We look at these three critical aspects to identify what’s holding you back. Once we know what’s affecting you in this way, we can make real, lasting changes to your velocity, command, and ability to reduce injury risk.
