Shoulder pain and injury are common. The therapists at Physiohaus educate patients about how your shoulder is the most mobile of all of your joints. The reason for this movement is a related to the structure of the shoulder - there is a very small joint contact zone in this joint. This essentially means that your shoulder is quite unstable, due to it's architecture. This is why your shoulder muscles are so important. They provide stability and mobility to this joint-complex.
Many people with shoulder pain present with muscle weakness, muscle incoordination and muscle imbalance.
Luckily, these dysfunctions can be improved after a quality assessment and injury-specific exercises.
You may have visited your family doctor and have been diagnosed with the following shoulder conditions:
Rotator cuff tendinopathy
Bursitis
Shoulder instability (labral or cartilage injury)
Frozen shoulder
Fracture
Arthrosis
