Shoulder Pain? We Can Get You Moving Again

Shoulder pain may be one of those unwelcome visitors who won’t leave. If you experience a nagging ache or sharp pain every time you raise your arm, you can imagine how it’s very frustrating. Our skilled team at Rutherford Physiotherapy Clinic in Edmonton is ready to assist you in discovering a permanent solution and continue to enjoy the things that matter to you without the hassle of shoulder pain.

What's so tricky about shoulder pain?

The shoulder joint is a marvel of biomechanics, but its complexity makes it susceptible to many problems. Some underlooked contributors to shoulder pain include:

Impingement Syndromes

Soft tissues are pinched during movement.

Postural Imbalances

Subtle misalignments that snowball into chronic pain.

Muscle Fatigue

 Weakness from overuse or underuse of surrounding muscles.

Nerve Irritations

Pinched or compressed nerves causing radiating pain.

Tendinitis

Inflammation of the tendons from overuse.

Arthritis

Wear-and-tear or autoimmune-related joint pain.

Posture Problems

Slouching can lead to shoulder discomfort over time.

Our expertise in shoulder pain physiotherapy in Edmonton comes from understanding the root cause of effective treatment.
