SHOULDER PAIN – AJAX

Shoulder Pain at Body Care Physiotherapy Ajax

Shoulder pain is a common issue that can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life. At Body Care Physio & Rehab, we understand that shoulder pain can arise from a range of conditions, and our goal is to help you find relief and restore optimal function through comprehensive physiotherapy and rehabilitation.

Causes of Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can result from various factors, including:

1. Rotator Cuff Injuries: The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. Injuries, such as tears or tendinitis, can cause sharp or aching pain and limited range of motion.
2. Shoulder Impingement: This occurs when the tendons or bursa in the shoulder become compressed, often due to repetitive overhead activities. It can lead to pain and inflammation.
3. Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis): This condition involves stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint, resulting in restricted movement. It often develops gradually and can significantly impair shoulder function.
4. Shoulder Dislocations and Instability: Dislocations occur when the ball of the shoulder joint comes out of its socket, while instability refers to a feeling of the shoulder “giving way.” Both conditions can cause acute pain and require proper management.
5. Arthritis: Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can affect the shoulder joint, leading to pain, swelling, and decreased mobility.
6. Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursa (fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joint) can cause shoulder pain, particularly with movement.

Symptoms of Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can present in various ways, including:

• Sharp or dull pain in the shoulder or upper arm
• Pain that worsens with specific movements or activities
• Stiffness or limited range of motion
• Swelling or tenderness in the shoulder area
• Pain that radiates down the arm or up into the neck

Treatment and Management

At Body Care Physio & Rehab, our approach to treating shoulder pain includes:

1. Assessment and Diagnosis: Our experienced physiotherapists conduct thorough evaluations to determine the cause of your shoulder pain. This may involve physical examinations, assessments of movement patterns, and, if necessary, referrals for imaging studies.
2. Personalized Treatment Plans: Based on the assessment, we develop tailored treatment plans that address the specific cause of your shoulder pain. This may include:
   • Manual Therapy: Techniques such as joint mobilizations and soft tissue massage to improve movement and reduce pain.
   • Exercise Therapy: Customized exercises to strengthen the shoulder muscles, improve flexibility, and enhance overall function.
   • Posture and Ergonomics Training: Guidance on proper posture and body mechanics to prevent further strain and injury.
   • Modalities: Use of heat, ice, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation to manage pain and inflammation.
3. Education and Prevention: We provide education on how to avoid activities that may exacerbate your shoulder pain and offer strategies for maintaining shoulder health.
4. Rehabilitation: For more severe cases or after surgical interventions, we offer comprehensive rehabilitation programs to ensure a full recovery and help you return to your regular activities safely.
