Shoulder Pain
Shoulder Pain
Physiotherapy is an effective treatment option for shoulder pain, providing relief and promoting healing without the need for invasive procedures or medications. Shoulder pain can be caused by a variety of factors, including muscle strains, tendonitis, bursitis, or joint instability.
A physiotherapist will first assess the underlying cause of the shoulder pain through a thorough examination, including range of motion tests, strength tests, and palpation. Based on the assessment, a personalized treatment plan will be developed.
Physiotherapy for shoulder pain may include a combination of techniques such as manual therapy, exercises, and electrotherapy modalities. Manual therapy techniques like joint mobilizations and soft tissue mobilizations help to restore joint mobility and reduce pain. Exercises are prescribed to improve muscle strength, flexibility, and stability around the shoulder joint. Modalities such as ultrasound, heat or ice therapy, and electrical stimulation may also be used to manage pain and inflammation.
Physiotherapy aims to restore full range of motion, improve strength and stability, and reduce pain and inflammation. It also focuses on correcting posture and body mechanics to prevent future shoulder problems. Regular sessions with a physiotherapist and consistent adherence to the prescribed exercises and home care are essential for successful outcomes.

"Cannot recommend the clinic highly enough. Nick treated my daughter after knee surgery. Hugely thorough, knowledgeable and caring. There are physio teams and physio teams.... This is the best I've experienced in years."
"Nick helped me after I started experiencing pain in my hip/leg from weightlifting. He not only identified and guided me through fixing the problem, but has also given me a great deal of valuable advice for my training. Very happy with the results, would definitely recommend."
This is probably the best physio practice I've been to. I've been to other 'professional' physios that provide treatment for the sake of appearing to do something. The first session is generally a consultation to examine the issues. The ongoing advice and treatment is fantastic."
