Causes of shoulder pain

Shoulder pain is common in all ages. It can be related to poor posture; in most cases, patients who work at a desk typing suffer shoulder pain daily.

We have seen a significant increase in shoulder pain complaints during and after lockdown. Many more people now work from home and do not have access to the correct equipment, leading to people working from sofas or dining tables which are not suitable for our posture.

Other causes of shoulder pain include injury or wear and tear, which can lead to arthritis.

Treatments for shoulder pain

Our treatment plans here at Spinal Health Clinics are tailored to each individual.

Our team of specialists can provide a thorough assessment to detect the cause of your shoulder pain and create a treatment plan, as well as preventive measures to ensure your pain is managed at home and work.

We may offer a referral to another specialist within our team for more complex conditions.
Treatments include drug-free, non-invasive manual therapy, massage and manipulation to help restore the normal function and stabilise the joints.

Shoulder pain is a pervasive problem for all ages, with around 1 in 4 people suffering some type of problem within a lifetime. Our team at Spinal Health Clinics deals with several shoulder complaints, including injury, impingement, and arthritis.

Pain relief

Although not all shoulder pain can be healed, with an ongoing treatment plan, osteopathy can help reduce your shoulder pain and teach you how to manage your pain correctly at home and work.

Increasing blood flow

Studies show that increasing the blood flow to damaged areas of the body can help improve your symptoms and aids recovery by reducing inflammation and increasing your motion.

Improve your sleep patterns

Helps with mood

Pain affects all aspects of our life, from our relationships to our daily obligations and tasks. Reducing your pain can improve your sleep; your mood and energy levels will also increase after treatment.
