Shoulder Pain
Move With Greater Comfort and Confidence
Shoulder pain can make everyday movements surprisingly difficult. Reaching overhead, getting dressed, lifting objects, working, exercising, or participating in sports can all become challenging when your shoulder is painful or restricted.
​
Our highly trained clinicians provide individualized manual physical therapy for people experiencing shoulder pain and movement limitations. We focus on understanding your symptoms and how they affect your daily activities, then develop a treatment approach based on your specific needs and goals.
What Can Cause Shoulder Pain?
Shoulder pain can have many potential causes and contributing factors. These may include:
​
✔ Overuse and repetitive movements
✔ Sports-related injuries
✔ Muscle or tendon irritation
✔ Joint stiffness
✔ Movement restrictions
✔ Previous injuries
✔ Changes in activity or exercise
✔ Occupational demands
​
An appropriate assessment can help determine what may be contributing to your symptoms and whether manual physical therapy is appropriate for you
Manual Physical Therapy for Shoulder Pain
Our treatment approach emphasizes individualized care and hands-on manual physical therapy within the scope of practice. Depending on your presentation, treatment may incorporate techniques intended to improve mobility, address restrictions, and support more comfortable movement.
​
Your treatment may also include individualized movement and exercise recommendations designed around your functional needs and goals.
​
We believe effective care starts with listening. By understanding what you are experiencing and what you want to accomplish, we can work together toward a treatment plan that is appropriate for you.
