The Shoulder: Mobile but Vulnerable
The shoulder is the body's most mobile joint, sacrificing stability for range of motion. This makes it inherently vulnerable to injury, overuse, and degeneration. Shoulder problems are among the most frequent physiotherapy presentations at our Faridabad clinic.
Common Shoulder Conditions We Treat
- Rotator cuff tears and tendinopathy: The four rotator cuff muscles stabilise the shoulder. Tears range from minor strains to complete ruptures requiring surgical consideration.
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): Progressive shoulder stiffness and pain through three distinct stages lasting 1-3 years without treatment.
- Shoulder impingement syndrome: Compression of rotator cuff tendons under the acromion during arm elevation.
- AC joint problems: Acromioclavicular joint sprains common in contact sports and falls.
- Shoulder instability and dislocation: Hypermobility or post-dislocation instability requiring stability rehabilitation.
- Biceps tendinopathy: Long head of biceps tendon irritation causing anterior shoulder pain.
Our Shoulder Assessment
Every shoulder patient undergoes a systematic assessment covering posture, range of motion, strength, special orthopaedic tests, and movement quality to precisely diagnose the contributing factors.
Treatment Approaches
Treatment is highly individualised but typically includes manual therapy, rotator cuff strengthening, scapular stabilisation exercises, postural correction, and activity modification. We also coordinate with orthopaedic surgeons when surgical assessment is appropriate.
