Physical Therapy can Reduce your Shoulder Pain

Shoulder Pain is a common problem that can be uncomfortable and even debilitating. There are many conditions that can cause shoulder pain. Whether it be the result of injury or gradual deterioration, a shoulder rehabilitation program with a physical therapist can be an effective part of your treatment.

After any needed diagnostic tests and the cause of your shoulder pain has been pinpointed, the physical therapist will create a custom treatment plan to manage your shoulder pain.  They will evaluate things such as your range-of-motion, and strength and recommend the most effective mix of physical therapy techniques for your specific case. Treatment can include:

• Specific exercise to strengthen the surrounding muscles
• Stretches are an important part of treatment to help relieve stiffness. Stretching exercises can help loosen the muscles that surround the shoulder joint. 
• Heat and ice application 
• Electrical stimulation to promote healing 
• Changes in workplace ergonomics
• Laser therapy 

Our team of therapists here at Reddy Care Physical and Occupational therapy consists of specialists who excel in helping patients get relief from their shoulder pain. The shoulder is a complex joint that enables you to rotate your arm and perform many functions. A knowledgeable therapist can help improve the mechanics of this complex joint.
