HOLDING YOU BACK?

Get back to your daily activities and quality of life.

WHY LIVE WITH SHOULDER PAIN?

Chronic shoulder pain waking you up at night? Keeping you off the pickleball court? Limiting your active lifestyle? It may be time to consider shoulder replacement.

For individuals who’ve already explored shoulder replacement, perhaps it’s time to revisit that consideration? New advancements have been made that enable patients to experience pain relief and return to performing daily tasks easier and faster than ever before.

Shoulder pain and loss of mobility can have a profound impact on daily life. If you are considering shoulder replacement surgery, you are in the right place!

WHAT IS SHOULDER REPLACEMENT?

Shoulder replacement is a surgical procedure that may reduce or eliminate your shoulder pain and improve your mobility. The two most common types of shoulder replacement are:

ANATOMIC SHOULDER
REPLACEMENT

REVERSE SHOULDER
REPLACEMENT

MINIMALLY INVASIVE OPTIONS

All shoulder replacement systems share the same basic components, but not all systems are equal.
Catalyst shoulder systems have numerous benefits compared to other systems, including:
• A more natural-feeling shoulder after surgery1-3
• Potential for faster recovery1
• Greater preservation of your strong, healthy bone4
• And, more.

PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

All I can say is WOW!

In March of 2016, I had my right shoulder replaced. Then in January 2017, I had total shoulder replacement on the left side [with] the new Catalyst Total Shoulder System. I thought my right shoulder replacement surgery was fine because it was all I knew at the time. My result with Catalyst is so much better. After the right shoulder surgery, I slept in a chair for 3 weeks. This time, on the very first night after surgery, I slept in my bed the whole night. I felt really good and was virtually pain-free. Three months later, I feel like I haven’t even had surgery. I am able to put dishes away on the top shelf and hang clothes without difficulty or pain. I definitely could not do that at this point after my right shoulder surgery.

PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

I’m playing pickle ball, I’m golfing and I’m able to do anything I used to do!

Before my surgery [with the Catalyst CSR™ Total Shoulder System], I enjoyed golf, but I could not even finish nine holes. Holding on to the handlebars of my bike was just too fatiguing and I would get too sore. Even my handwriting was affected. My penmanship became unintelligible, due to the amount of effort.

I’m playing pickle ball, I’m golfing and I’m able to do anything I used to do with my right arm. I was able to go back to my Bodypump™ class, I was able to do a push up again and many other things.

PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

It’s an amazing surgery!

My passion is exercising. I can now do aerobics, do floor work and lift weights again. Before my surgery I could not sleep on my right side anymore. I now sleep better on my right side than my left side!

To me… when they are not cutting as much bone and soft tissue, it’s a no brainer. The recovery is so much faster. What’s more, if it needs to be revised for any reason in the future, you can still have the old-fashioned shoulder replacement.
