Shoulder Pain Treatment Melbourne
Rotator cuff, frozen shoulder, bursitis, impingement. We diagnose the cause and treat it with precision — so you can get back to full function.
Shoulder Pain Specialists
Shoulder pain is complex. The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, which also makes it one of the most vulnerable to injury. Effective treatment requires accurate diagnosis — not just symptom management.
Our physiotherapists and osteopaths conduct thorough shoulder assessments to identify the specific structure involved, the contributing factors, and the most appropriate treatment pathway. Whether you're dealing with a sports injury, a workplace strain, or a long-standing condition like frozen shoulder, we have the expertise to help.
Common Causes
Tears, tendinopathy, or impingement of the rotator cuff muscles — the most common cause of shoulder pain in adults over 40.
Progressive stiffness and pain from inflammation of the shoulder joint capsule, often developing without a clear cause.
Inflammation of the bursa (fluid-filled sac) in the shoulder, causing pain with overhead movements and lying on the affected side.
Sprain or separation of the acromioclavicular joint, commonly caused by a fall onto the shoulder or outstretched hand.
Damage to the cartilage ring (labrum) surrounding the shoulder socket, causing instability, clicking, and deep joint pain.
Neck (cervical spine) dysfunction that refers pain into the shoulder, upper arm, or hand — often mistaken for a primary shoulder problem.
