Physiotherapy for Shoulder Pain
Your shoulders are made up of three bones (the upper arm bone, shoulder blade and collar bone) and two joints, making them the most flexible parts of your body. The joint is surrounded by muscles and tendons (known as the rotator cuff), that hold them in place and support movement.
However, due to their structure, the joint is prone to injury and more likely to dislocate than others. This is why injuries are very common. So if you’re suffering from any symptoms and are in need of physiotherapy for shoulder pain in Parramatta, contact us online or visit one of our clinics during opening hours, to find out how we can help you.

How Can Physio Help
Your Shoulder Pain?
It’s quite common for shoulder pain to disappear after a few days, but if it doesn’t you should seek physiotherapy treatment. Our physios can help your shoulder pain in many different ways:
Pain relief
Initially, we will focus on pain relief and management to try and make you as comfortable as possible, as we know how much being in constant pain can affect your everyday life.
Stability
We’ll then focus on restoring stability in the joint, enabling you to have a full range of movement again.
Strengthening
Once stable, we’ll then work on strengthening your muscles. This is vital to prevent further issues and potentially traumatic events. Injuries like dislocations require continual management and daily exercise to avoid the chance of them dislocating again.
