Luke Van Every is Brilliant! I have never been to see anyone like Luke before. He was so thorough in his examination and diagnosis of my problem. I was completely impressed.

Hi Luke, since my daughter first came to see you she hasn’t experienced any pain at all and her shoulder hasn’t popped out. I think she’s on the mend. Thanks for all your help in getting her to this point and all you have done to tighten her shoulder up.

G’day Luke, not sure if you remember, but I was a patient of yours for a while last December. Firstly, I wanted to let you know that since the treatment my shoulder has been feeling nearly 100% so thanks very much for that. I really struggled with my shoulder there for a while so it has been great to be back on track.
Thanks again and all the best mate.

Dear Luke, I should have sent this weeks ago to thank you for all this time pain free – it is fantastic!

Following surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff I was recommended by my surgeon Dr Macgroarty to see the best “Shoulder Guy” in town, Luke Van Every. Luke set a program and intensity that saw my shoulder return to full use in less than 5 months (where it can take 6 – 9 months usually). His program was personal and his constant encouragement made it easy to commit to the daily program and this has resulted in an outcome of which I am extremely satisfied. I have no hesitation in recommending Luke to anyone who is unfortunate enough to have shoulder surgery.
All the best.

I first noticed my shoulder problems approximately two years ago whilst doing overhead presses at the gym. The problem manifested itself as a sharp pain in my left shoulder and a disappointing feeling overall weakness. I persevered with this condition thinking that it was a case of doing more resistance training concentrating on the left shoulder to basically “catch up” with the right, and then the problem would resolve itself.
More recently, I started to learn the game of golf. One night at the driving range I noticed a sharp pain in my left shoulder after a drive and this pain increased over the next 24 hours to the point that I could not even lift my arm above elbow height. I decided to act on this and saw an Osteopath and then a couple of different Physiotherapists. After their treatment the problem was not improving and about six months later I had given up the ghost and considered an operation to stabilise the shoulder, by this time I had the sensation of clicking and the ball popping out of the socket in my shoulder at the slightest of things e.g. opening a window on one occasion. Looking at the internet one day on shoulder reconstructions I came across Luke’s (The Shoulder Guy) website. I decided to give it one more go.
On my first visit to Luke I was relieved to learn that an operation was not necessary. Luke immediately located the problem and gave me some simple exercises to build up the Rotator Cuff muscles that were very weak in my left shoulder. I stuck at the exercises and over the following 6 weeks the shoulder improved dramatically.
I am now cured and delighted to say so.
I would also like to add that Luke looked at the overall picture and showed me some very important exercises for core stability, total body exercises and safe shoulder exercises/form that are of great benefit to know. Going forward Luke has equiped me with the knowledge to spot any danger signs and exercises to avoid a reoccurrence of the problem. I highly recommend Luke if you have shoulder issues, my only regret is not finding him sooner.

As a physiotherapist myself, I know how complex the shoulder is, and also how difficult it is to accurately diagnose and effectively treat injuries at this joint. So, it was with no hesitation that I contacted Luke when I myself began to experience pain in my left shoulder during workouts at the gym. Having previously encountered Luke numerous times at his shoulder clinic at one of Brisbane’s largest private orthopaedic hospitals, and also unashamedly picking over his extensive knowledge of the shoulder on many occasions, I was very confident that he was the person to have me pain free and back to the gym in no time.
Following a very thorough and professional examination, Luke was able to give me the accurate diagnosis I was searching for. Equipped with a comprehensive and suitable exercise program, I was pain free within 3 days and back at the gym having resumed full work within 2 weeks. During my sessions with Luke, I found him to be a consummate professional, and was very impressed with his up-to-date knowledge on shoulder injury and rehabilitation, and the vast array of innovative treatment techniques and rehab exercises he offers – Most of which I am going to steal for myself!

In mid June Dr Andrew Ryan performed a right shoulder labral repair, debridement of the supraspinatus tendon and decompression of the bursar. Dr Ryan highly recommended Luke, “The Shoulder Guy” for my rehabilitation.
Thanks Luke for all your post op professional support over the last four months. The stay in Brisbane was certainly worthwhile. I have never met anybody with such commitment and motivation to their work. Every stage of my exercise and rehabilitation program was fully explained. I knew exactly what was going on with my shoulder and why. It was so refreshing to work with you post op to get my shoulder up and going again. I never expected to be close to getting back to full duties so soon. Keep up the great work and thanks,

Luke was recommended to me by my son’s mother in law – we shared our shoulder problems and now share our enthusiasm for Luke’s deep understanding of what makes shoulders work, what can go wrong with them and how to fix it. I was particularly impressed by Luke’s gentle approach in first activating muscled before proceeding to strengthen them. For me, this has been highly successful in reversing previous damage done and leaving me almost completely pain free. Luke is indeed “the” Shoulder Guy.

Hi Luke, just thought that I would give you the personal satisfaction of knowing you were spot on with your advice- I had a CT done while in external rotation and the report was very clear – the screw is abutting the humeral head and limiting external rotation. I think that’ll give the surgeon the confidence he needs to get in there again and take it out.
Cheers!

Hey Luke,
Just letting you know that my shoulder is 100% and thanks for all your help.
I have included two videos from my first two sessions back on the water. 12000+ hits in under a week, so I’m stoked about this.
I really appreciate all the help you have given me to get back to what I love.
Thanks again, see you soon.
