How Can Your Physical Therapist Help? Shoulder Pain Physical therapy can be very successful in treating shoulder aches and pains. You will work with your physical therapist to devise a treatment plan that is specific to your condition and goals. Your physical therapist will help you identify and avoid painful movements, as well as correct abnormal postures to reduce impingement compression of your shoulder. Therapeutic modalities, like electrical stimulation, or even just ice may also be helpful to reduce pain. Your physical therapist may also use manual techniques, such as gentle joint movements, soft-tissue massage, and shoulder stretches to get your shoulder moving properly. Along the way, you will learn exercises and stretches to help your shoulder and shoulder blade move properly, so you can return to reaching and lifting without pain. Call today if you need relief from shoulder pain!
