For many patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears in their shoulders, the pain is debilitating.1 Barbara Corcoran was no different. After she injured her shoulder a second time, she was in tremendous pain and was scared about what this meant for her active lifestyle and career. “I saw it as a career-ender. I was frightened to death.”
Listen to Barbara’s story and learn about the breakthrough technology, the InSpace balloon implant, and how it helped her get back in motion and back to her career. “I could lift a plate up, and I felt like throwing it in the air and celebrating!”
