Worried About Your Shoulder pain?

Does your shoulder pain keep you up at night?

Has getting dressed or wearing a coat become difficult because of shoulder pain?

You might think that resting your shoulder or ignoring the pain and hoping it will go away on its own are valid strategies for your shoulder pain. THEY`RE NOT!

Avoiding doing the thing that hurts may also seem like a good idea. IT`S NOT!

Generally, the pain won`t go away on its own. In fact, the constant pain and stiffness is probably having an effect on your daily life as well. It might even be keeping you awake at night or waking you up. And the inactivity is actually making your shoulder weaker and stiffer than it was in the first place.

Shoulder Pain is a condition which affects your normal movement, making it harder to do everyday activities. As a result, your self-confidence may suffer, as you can`t get dressed easily, you can`t brush your teeth properly, driving is hard and looking after the kids nigh on impossible.

You become overly cautious and end up making your shoulder pain worse and the joint gets progressively stiffer.

Sadly, the majority of people who come to Relive Physiotherapy for shoulder pain are not doing the right things once they know they have a problem.

They ask advice from their friends and family who tell them to ‘rest and see what happens’,‘go and see the Doctor’,‘just take some painkillers and you’ll be back to normal in no time’. All of these are wrong and the best you can hope for is that nothing gets worse (although it invariably does).

They may have searched ‘Shoulder Pain Causes’ or ‘Shoulder Pain Clinic Near Me’ on the internet and had a million pages come up. When that happens it is difficult to know what to believe.

They may have even searched up ‘Shoulder Pain Exercises’ and found some videos. But if they are not exactly the right exercises for their type of shoulder pain, then their Pain and stiffness is going to get worse.

They may have been to see their GP, who wasn`t able to help, but did prescribe some medication for the pain. The problem with this is that the shoulder doesn`t get better as the painkillers just stop you from realising that there is a problem. When you stop the pills, you may find that your initial problem is worse.

But, there is GOOD NEWS! Our Expert Relive shoulder pain Physiotherapists can help! Our experience has shown us that people who come to see us to receive treatment earlier can completely get rid of their symptoms quickly!

The shoulder’s main function

in your body is to allow your arm to move. It is a joint made up of 3 bones, the clavicle (collar bone), humerus (upper arm bone) and the scapula (shoulder blade). Add to that a lot of tendons, cartilage and muscle, and you have a shoulder!

Considering how complex the shoulder is and the amount of work that it needs to do in a lifetime, it isn’t surprising that sometimes there are problems!

Your shoulder is the most mobile joints and it is incredibly flexible. If you consider the range of motion that you have with your arms, the shoulder is responsible for all of this. But, this comes at a price. The shoulder is very prone to injury and dislocation, and much more so than any of your other joints.

There are a number of issues

that can happen with your shoulder and they are ones that we regularly treat at Relive Physiotherapy.

Shoulder Impingement caused by a rubbing/ catching of the shoulder tendon on the nearby bone. This often affects the Rotator Cuff and you can often have both injuries at the same time.

Rotator Cuff Tear or Tendonitis a problem with the muscles around the shoulder, which can make everyday tasks really difficult to do.

Frozen Shoulder caused by a swelling of the tissue around the shoulder joint. It can be very painful and last a long time.

Sports Injuries

Shoulder Dislocation usually occurs after trauma such as a fall or accident. Whilst a Physiotherapist would not be able to put your shoulder back (and you definitely shouldn’t pop it back in like in a Hollywood movie), the damage caused by the dislocation can leave the shoulder muscles weak and vulnerable to further injury.

Cervical Radiculopathy this is a pinched or trapped nerve. It can be quite painful on the shoulder but it is very easy to treat.

We treat all manner of Shoulder Injuries,

but the most common ones we see are:

Rotator Cuff tear/impingement

Frozen Shoulder

Shoulder Dislocations

Shoulder instability

Shoulder Osteoarthritis

AC joint dysfunction

Labral Tears

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Bicipital Tendinitis

Today I visited Relive Physiotherapy and was treated by Raj. I had ultrasound guided cortisone injections in both shoulders to help with pain after a fall. The whole procedure was excellent. Raj explained everything very thoroughly, he initially showed me images of my shoulders on the scan and explained where the problem was and where he was going to inject. The injections were not particularly painful, and I thought the whole procedure was carried out very professionally.I live in Wales and the wait time for cortisone injections on the NHS are 6-9 months. I was able to arrange the injections with Raj within days. I can thoroughly recommend Relive Physiotherapy and the treatment I received from Raj today was first class. Many thanks. Judith France

I started physio a few weeks back and I can’t thank Raj enough, he’s friendly and he took the time to explain everything to me clearly and has given me so much advice in order to help and he’s managed to get rid of the pain I’ve been having for so long! I highly recommend!

Messed up a muscle around my shoulder and Raj sorted it out, gave some quality advice to prevent it happening again... Couldn't ask for more.

Thank you for your help getting me back to fitness enabling me to do long dog walks (To the pub) I have recommended Raj to friends who have also had effective sessions.

Darren Young

After an accident in the garden causing pain to lower back and legs I decided to visit Mohana for six sessions and I’ve found the experience to be great, the pain has now gone. Mohana was very professional and caring in her approach making sure the after massage pain was not too much. i would recommend Relive Physiotherapy to anyone instead of suffering weeks of pills and self healing. Many thanks to all the team.

Alan Wilson

I have struggled with debilitating back pain since my teenage years. Over the past 20 years I have visited numerous specialists, surgeons, chiropractors, and other physiotherapists. I have had a number of MRIs and even considered surgery. I was recommended Relive Physiotherapy by a friend and thought I would give it one last attempt before turning to surgery. All Mohana has asked of me is to be consistent and commit to my twice weekly appointments. I am two months into my therapy and have seen major improvements. I now have minimal pain, I can complete the simple tasks that I couldn’t before, like going on a walk, changing the bed, cooking dinner, the list goes on! My quality of life has completely changed! Mohana has not only alleviated the chronic pain I had, but also got to the root of the problem so we now know how to manage this long term; ensuring this isn’t a short-term solution. Relive Physiotherapy is brilliant.

Stephanie Windsor

We were referred to Relive through our health insurance company, to organize treatment for my brother following an injury to his wrist and shoulder. Mohana has been treating him over the past few weeks. There's been significant improvement in his condition. We would definitely recommend anyone needing treatment to try Relive.

Jack McKie

Mohana was very helpful in getting my father back on his feet after a hip injury. She was very professional and caring at the same time. We would highly recommend her.

Amit Phadke

The most powerful, gentle treatment I've ever had. Totally awesome treatment. Very professional and lovely service. Topclass Mohana happy. Kind. Powerful treatment.. can't wait to book more sessions..

heidi rhiann

I was in such pain in my back but Mohana made her magic and now I am able to move without fear of pain. Highly recommended

Irena Pritchard

I cannot recommend Mohanna and the team at Relive Physiotherapy enough. Following a knee replacement surgery, having completed the traditional post operative physio, I continued to struggle with pain and reduced mobility. Following just an initial few sessions with Mohanna, I noticed a definite improvement with reduced pain and increased mobility. I am now at the stage where I can cycle, go hiking and workout in the gym comfortably. I definitely would not be where I am today, with no pain and full mobility if it weren't for the wonderful Mohanna...thank you so much!
