SHOULDER PAIN TREATMENT
BOOK ONLINEComprehensive Shoulder Pain Physiotherapy in Cambridge
From frozen shoulder to rotator cuff injuries and impingement syndromes, Roshan delivers expert assessment and personalised treatment plans. His approach combines hands-on manual therapy with progressive strengthening to restore full shoulder function.
What to Expect from Treatment
The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, making it vulnerable to a wide range of conditions. Accurate diagnosis is essential because treatment pathways differ significantly between frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), rotator cuff tears, tendinopathy, and subacromial impingement. Assessment includes specific orthopaedic tests, strength testing, and movement analysis. Treatment is tailored accordingly — frozen shoulder benefits from capsular stretching and graded loading; rotator cuff issues respond to progressive strengthening; and impingement is managed through posture correction and scapular retraining. Recovery timelines vary: impingement often improves within 6–8 weeks, while frozen shoulder may take 6–12 months with consistent management.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does frozen shoulder take to resolve?
Frozen shoulder typically progresses through freezing, frozen, and thawing phases over 12–18 months. Physiotherapy can significantly accelerate recovery and reduce pain during each phase.
Do I need a scan before starting shoulder physio?
Not usually. A thorough clinical assessment is often sufficient to diagnose the problem and begin treatment. If imaging is needed, Roshan can advise on the appropriate type and refer accordingly.
