You are not alone in dealing with shoulder pain, and we can help with whatever is causing your discomfort.
Shoulder pain can range from minor aches to severe bone-on-bone discomfort. A thorough evaluation by a licensed physical therapist is the best way to determine the source of your pain and the right path forward.
Shoulder stiffness and weakness can make everyday tasks difficult. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are two frequent forms of arthritis that may affect the shoulder.
When cartilage in the shoulder joint breaks down, pain and inflammation can limit movement. Osteoarthritis may be related to age or excessive use, while rheumatoid arthritis affects the joint lining.
Abnormal movement and tracking of the humeral head can cause pain when you raise your arm, especially at a 90-degree angle or higher.
Soreness, arm weakness, difficulty reaching behind your back, and sleeping problems can all be signs of a rotator cuff injury. Physical therapy can often improve strength and relieve discomfort.
Inflamed shoulder tendons can cause swelling and severe impingement when you raise your arm. Poor posture may contribute by creating tension and weakness around the shoulder.
Many shoulder conditions share similar symptoms. A personalized assessment helps your physical therapist understand your mobility, strength, coordination, and medical history.
Physical therapy is a safe, non-invasive, natural, and comfortable solution for getting rid of shoulder pain. Our physical therapists have treated a wide range of shoulder pain disorders, with many patients seeing considerable relief and improvement after just a few sessions.
Your physical therapist will assess your joint mobility, joint motion mechanics, range of motion, strength, coordination, and medical history. Once the source of your shoulder pain has been identified, your therapist can create a custom treatment plan to manage pain and restore function.
Gentle manual therapy may be used to restore movement, ease soft-tissue limitations, and improve circulation. Your plan may also include strengthening exercises and education to help you avoid future shoulder problems.
Gentle hands-on treatment may help ease soft-tissue limitations, improve circulation, and support more comfortable shoulder motion.
Targeted strengthening exercises can help improve shoulder support, mobility, and your ability to return to normal activities.
Your treatment plan is based on your evaluation, goals, and the specific limitations affecting your shoulder.
