Conditions Treated

Trigger Points

This condition is usually occurring in the middle and upper part of the shoulder blades. The muscles in the shoulder blades develop a series of knots, which then radiate shoulderpain up into the head and neck area, or down the arm.

Treatment Plan

The treatment involves a series of specifically devised doctor-assisted stretches. This is then combined with physiotherapy modalities and specific trigger point therapies that have been designed to break up the knots in the muscle and improve the patient's posture.

About Shoulder / Arm Pain

Common injuries of the shoulder/arm area are often the result of poor posture, muscle imbalances, or repetitive strain from daily activities such as carrying a shoulder bag. It is important not only to rehabilitate the affected muscles and joints, but also to provide the patient with alternatives for postures and movements that cause the problem.
