Shoulder pain is a frequent musculoskeletal complaint that may result from acute injury, repetitive strain, poor posture, or degenerative changes affecting the joints, muscles, or surrounding soft tissues. Symptoms may include pain, stiffness, weakness, reduced range of motion, or difficulty with overhead and reaching activities. Physiotherapy plays a key role in restoring mobility, improving strength, and preventing chronic dysfunction.
Common shoulder conditions treated include:
- Rotator cuff tendinopathy and tears
- Shoulder impingement syndrome
- Bursitis
- Instability or dislocation
- Labral tears
- Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder)
- Acromioclavicular (AC) joint injuries
- Postural-related shoulder dysfunction
- Osteoarthritis
