Shoulder pain that shows up every time you press overhead, throw, do pull-ups, or reach behind your back? At ElevateYou Physical Therapy in Murrieta, Dr. Richi Krottmayer, DPT, finds where the pain is coming from and builds a plan to get you back to lifting, training, and daily life without pain.
Shoulder Problems We Treat
- Pain with overhead lifting, pressing, and pull-ups
- Rotator cuff strains, tendinitis, and post-surgical rotator cuff repair
- Shoulder instability and dislocations
- “Pinchy” shoulder and impingement-type pain
- Throwing shoulder pain in baseball and other overhead athletes
- Tight, stiff shoulders that limit mobility
Our Approach
Shoulder pain is rarely just about the shoulder. We look at how your shoulder blade, upper back, and neck move together, then combine hands-on manual therapy, IASTM, and cupping with targeted strength work so the fix lasts. Every visit is a full 1:1 session, and you leave with a home plan built for you.
What Patients Say
I came to Elevate You Physical Therapy with really bad shoulder pain that had been bothering me for weeks during CrossFit, anything overhead felt almost impossible… Within just a few weeks, the pain was completely gone.

Richi was awesome with my 14-year-old son who hurt his shoulder playing baseball… He’s throwing again with no pain and is super happy to be back on the field.

I felt immediate relief just after one session and with reoccurring sessions was completely able to resolve chronic shoulder pain. I am back to full mobility and lifting heavy weights overhead with no pain whatsoever.
