You've tried PT, stretches, maybe even cortisone shots, but you're still wincing when you reach overhead. Our robotic therapy is designed to release the tight chest and shoulder muscles that conventional treatments miss. Many clients report moving freely again in weeks, not months.*
Same-Week Appointments Available
Hours: Mon–Fri 8am–7pm · Sat 8am–4pm
Workouts disappear: Tennis at Crandon Park Tennis or golf at Trump National Doral becomes impossible when constant pains in multiple locations around your shoulder limit every movement, forcing you to abandon activities that define you.
Sleep becomes survival: Nights in your Brickell home become difficult when constant shoulder pain wakes you up every time you roll over, leaving you exhausted with no lasting relief.
Simple tasks feel impossible: Daily activities like putting on a jacket, lifting a grocery bag at Aventura Mall, or even washing your hair become agonizing reminders that this health condition is taking over your life.
South Florida residents don't have to live this way.
Many clients are surprised how much tightness they carry in the front of their body. When those muscles stay locked up, they can pull the shoulder out of position causing a pinching sensation.
Shoulder pain often shows up alongside tightness in the chest, upper traps, and the muscles around the shoulder blade. Many clients describe a constant ache that never lets up and sharp pain when reaching. Our robotic therapy is designed to deliver sustained pressure with vibration into the pecs, traps, and shoulder muscles at levels human hands can't maintain. When that tightness finally starts to release, many clients tell us their shoulder begins moving more freely. That's when they start getting their life back.
Clients often report they can:
Return to workouts and athletic activities without constant shoulder pain limiting them
Sleep through the night without shoulder pain waking them up
Simple daily tasks like lifting groceries and washing their hair become effortless again

Approach: Stretching exercises and strengthening protocols targeting shoulder muscles
Timeframe: 8-12 weeks of sessions
Effectiveness: Can help mild cases, but clients with chronic symptoms often report limited progress
PT exercises often focus on the shoulder itself but skip the chest and front-body tightness pulling everything forward. Stretching can help temporarily, but when the underlying tension isn't addressed, the pain tends to come back.
Approach: Manual soft tissue work on shoulder and upper back muscles
Timeframe: Weekly sessions, temporary relief
Effectiveness: Can provide temporary relief but limited by hand fatigue and pressure consistency
Massage can feel good in the moment, but the relief often doesn't hold. Human hands fatigue quickly and struggle to maintain the sustained pressure chest and shoulder muscles need to release.
Approach: Cortisone injections or surgical intervention for severe cases
Timeframe: Recovery time varies by procedure
Effectiveness: Injections provide temporary relief; surgery has long recovery with variable outcomes
Cortisone typically helps short-term but wears off after weeks or months. Neither injections nor surgery address the muscular tightness that may be contributing to the problem in the first place.
The problem often starts in front, not behind
The shoulder is designed to move freely in all directions, but it depends on balanced tension from muscles on all sides. When the chest and front shoulder muscles get tight from daily posture, desk work, or training, they can pull the shoulder forward and out of its natural position. This creates that pinching sensation when you reach, the ache that won't let up, and the sharp pain with certain movements. Most treatments focus on the shoulder itself. But if the front-body tightness keeps pulling, the pain often comes back.
(Translated by Google) I had never heard of robotic therapy, I went for shoulder pain and with two sessions I did I was amazed at the relief. (Original) Nunca habia escuchado de una terapia robotica, fui por dolor de hombro y con dos sesiones que hice quede asombrada del alivio.
Cassandra has been excellent and knowledgeable. She has greatly assisted in helping to reduce my chronic shoulder pain.
I saw the website for Theramax when I was on vacation in Miami. My shoulder muscles were so tight I could barely turn my head. :-/ Waleska was able to schedule me into a last minute appointment and I am so grateful that she did! I am really feeling great after the treatment. I have also continued to use my percussion gun in the same spots, so the muscle continues to loosen. My treatment was certainly a success!
"My experience with Theramax was great. I went in for a chronic arm pain that was cutting into my workouts as well as everyday chores. With just a one hour session, the pain went away, it's been close to a month since my visit, and I've been able to go back to my normal routines. I highly reccomend Theramax and it's highly advanced robot-based therapy."
"After struggling with sciatica pain for months, I gave TheraMax Miami a try. Mylene and Cassandra are miracle workers. The shooting pain down my leg is gone after 5 sessions! I had never even heard of the psoas muscle and how it can cause back pain. So glad my sister told me about this place."
"I went for plantar fasciitis pain, and it was such an amazing experience. All the service was unbelievable, from the check in to the end. Cassandra was outstanding, she was very knowledgeable and also very friendly and outgoing. Highly recommend it!"
"Thank you to the folks at Theramax, after 4 sessions my sciatica pain has been greatly reduced. I’ve been able to slowly return to the gym and feel that I am on my way to a full recovery. Highly recommend."
"(Translated by Google) A unique experience, the staff is very professional and friendly! It's worth a try. (Original) Una experiencia diferente, el personal muy profesional y muy amable! Vale la pena probarlo"
"Customer service is excellent, the therapy speaks for itself due to the fact that after 3 treatments I felt much better. The Physical Therapist also instructed me in specific stretches, posture control and sleeping habits. I’m now going for neck issues."
Get answers to your questions about robotic therapy
Many clients come to us after seeing multiple Miami specialists, getting imaging, and still not having a clear explanation for their shoulder pain. We don't diagnose, but we do focus on muscular tightness in the chest, traps, and shoulder area that often gets overlooked in traditional care. Many clients tell us they finally started feeling better once these areas were worked consistently.
Sleep disruption is one of the most common things clients tell us about, especially waking up every time they roll over. When the chest and shoulder muscles finally start to release, many clients say sleep is one of the first things that noticeably improves.
Many athletes come to us because shoulder pain is shutting down their training. Clients returning to golf at Trump National Doral or tennis at Crandon Park Tennis is common once that deep front-body and shoulder tightness starts to ease. Timelines vary, but many athletes tell us they feel more comfortable with lighter movements after just a few sessions.
You're not alone. Many clients describe the same sharp pain during simple tasks, whether reaching for something at Aventura Mall or washing their hair at home. When the muscles in the chest and front shoulder stay tight, reaching overhead or behind your back can feel painful. Once that front-body tightness starts to release, many clients tell us those daily movements become easier and less stressful.
This is extremely common. Imaging can show bones and major soft-tissue issues, but it doesn't show muscular tension patterns, and that's what many clients feel the most. Many Miami residents tell us their scans were 'normal,' yet they were still miserable. Once the chest and shoulder muscles begin to release, clients often say the pain they couldn't explain finally makes sense.
