Shoulder Conditions

• Symptoms

  • Progressive shoulder stiffness and reduced range of motion

  • Pain that may worsen at night or with movement

  • Difficulty with daily activities (e.g. dressing, reaching overhead)

  • Gradual loss of shoulder mobility over time

  Treatment

  • Physiotherapy to improve mobility and reduce stiffness

  • Guided stretching and range-of-motion exercises

  • Pain management to allow gradual movement recovery

• Symptoms

  • Shoulder pain when lifting the arm or reaching overhead

  • Weakness in the shoulder, especially with rotation or lifting

  • Pain when lying on the affected side

  • Reduced range of motion or difficulty with daily movements

  Treatment

  • Physiotherapy to reduce pain and restore shoulder strength

  • Targeted strengthening of the rotator cuff and stabilising muscles

  • Gradual return to movement with proper load management

  • Further assessment if symptoms persist or worsen

• Symptoms

  • Shoulder feels loose or “slips out”

  • Pain with overhead or rotational movements

  • Weakness or reduced control during activity

  • History of dislocation or repeated instability

  Treatment

  • Physiotherapy to improve shoulder stability and control

  • Strengthening of the rotator cuff and surrounding muscles

  • Movement retraining to prevent recurrent dislocations

• Bankart Repair

• SLAP repair

• AC joint Reconstruction

• Sub-acromial Decompression

• Fracture Fixation (e.g. ORIF)

• Rotator Cuff Repair

Symptoms

• Shoulder feels loose or “slips out”

• Pain with overhead or rotation

• Clicking, catching, or repeated dislocations

Treatment

• Physiotherapy to rebuild shoulder stability and control

• Strengthening of rotator cuff and stabilisers

• Surgery only if instability keeps recurring
