What Causes Shoulder and Arm Pain?
Many things around the shoulder can cause pain. Sometimes, the pain is actually coming from another area, like the neck. A physical therapist’s job is to figure out where the pain is coming from. Once we know, we can create a treatment plan just for you.
How Can Physical Therapy Help?
Your physical therapist will check your shoulder, neck, and spine to find the cause of your pain. Getting the right diagnosis is important to treat the shoulder the right way. Treatment usually includes exercises to make the rotator cuff and shoulder muscles stronger, stretching, and teaching you about good posture to avoid stress on your shoulder.
Your physical therapist will give you the correct diagnosis AND treat the pain.
