Does Physiotherapy Help Shoulder Pain?

Can Physiotherapy Help with Shoulder Pain?

Are you having pain in your shoulder while getting dressed, sleeping on your side, driving your car, carrying groceries, or reaching overhead?

This is something that we help people deal with daily at MOMENTUM Physical Therapy.

The shoulder is a complex joint that has multiple bones, ligaments, and muscles that can become injured due to overuse (for example, by washing the windows or shovelling snow) or by a traumatic injury (such as a fall or a heavy lift).

At MOMENTUM Physical Therapy in Okotoks, our physiotherapists are trained to examine sore shoulders. We will determine what is injured and why it is causing you pain with a comprehensive assessment. Once we have determined the nature of your injury, we will put together a rehab program consisting of personalized exercises and hands on treatment to help you meet your goals. Sore shoulders often fully recover in 6-8 sessions once they start down the right path.

If you are dealing with any shoulder discomfort, call MOMENTUM Physical Therapy today. Don’t let a sore shoulder slow you down this fall. 403-982-5600
