Wednesdays truth bomb: Pain often isn’t just about injury — it’s about movement and strength (or the lack of it). Your shoulder is designed to move through a full range, but modern life doesn’t always support that.
Let’s talk biomechanics 🦴
Sometimes, shoulder pain isn’t coming from the shoulder itself. The body works as a team and often we can lack movement and strength in one area which can lead to another area being overworked and become painful
Here’s a great example of a client I had last week…
Lizzy presented in clinic with shoulder pain. So we decided to look at the whole picture and find out what areas of the team weren’t doing their job.
For Lizzy we noticed the movement in her upper back was quite limited and her lat muscles didn’t do much. This meant the little muscles around the shoulder were being overworked.
We then worked on those areas with some specific exercises. Lizzy left the session with significantly less pain and her shoulder mobility improved massively.
👉 With the right assessment and exercises we can restore function, reduce pain, and get you moving freely again.
Movement isn’t optional — it’s medicine.
