One of the most common reasons people seek physiotherapy consultation is because of complaints of shoulder pain and a ‘catching’ feeling that they experience at certain arm positions. Shoulder pain can cause high levels of frustration due to the inability to perform daily tasks. And shoulder pain can be annoyingly achy.

​

Research has shown (and our experience too!) promising results following physiotherapy treatment for shoulder pain, patients had lasting relief of symptoms with improvement in range, and subsequently increased quality of life and sports ‘performance.

​

Physiotherapy is the accepted first line treatment for shoulder pain before you think of surgery. We do a thorough assessment, hands-on treatment, an exercise programme and education. The physiotherapist will individualise the programme to your specific needs using the latest scientific research. Modifiable risk factors for impingement such as posture, muscle strength and/or muscle flexibility will be addressed during treatment to help relieve symptoms and avoid reoccurring injury.

​

 Shoulder pain can be frustrating and debilitating, however, through physiotherapy treatment symptoms can be relieved and quality of life can be improved.
