If shoulder pain is limiting your movement, physiotherapy can be a game-changer. Rotator cuff injuries—ranging from wear & tear to complete tears—are common, especially in athletes and those with repetitive overhead movements. Symptoms often include pain, weakness, and restricted mobility, particularly when lifting your arm or reaching behind your back.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Pain Relief & Inflammation Control – Ice therapy, ultrasound, and hands-on techniques reduce pain and swelling.
Strength & Stability Exercises – Tailored rehabilitation programmes focus on rebuilding shoulder strength and improving joint stability. Strengthening surrounding muscles, such as the deltoid, helps compensate for rotator cuff weakness.
Manual Therapy & Stretching – Joint mobilisations and soft tissue massage enhance flexibility and restore range of motion.
Postural & Activity Modifications – Improving posture and adjusting movement patterns prevent strain and aid long-term recovery.
Early treatment is crucial to prevent further damage and avoid surgery. At Breakspeare Clinics, our expert physiotherapists design personalised treatment plans to help you regain pain-free movement.
