Capsulodesis is surgery to repair a joint that is dislocated.

About the TES - well I think it's in how you approach it and also at what level you are starting her at... maybe it's too high? We call it the "sticky machine" adn we talk about what it does and how it brings blood to her armie and feeds it so that it will get stronger and help her move it better. Is there something about it that is disturbing her? Are you taping them? Maybe the tape removal is making her antsy? It will take time to get used to it but after a while it'll be old hat. UNLESS she has sensory issues and can't handle it - this is all possible too.
