Physical Therapy for Shoulder Pain
After a major shoulder injury or surgery, a rehabilitation plan will be employed to help reduce pain and accelerate healing. Shoulder rehabilitation typically consists of targeted exercises and stretches overseen by a trained physical therapist. This is crucial for a smooth recovery. Overall rehabilitation programs are designed to:
- Improve flexibility
- Regain strength
- Promote healing
Your rehabilitation program will start with an individual evaluation to go over your condition and your specific needs. Your therapist, after the evaluation and using any proper diagnostics such as x-rays, will create a tailored program to target the root of your pain and help you return to your normal activities sooner. A typical rehabilitation program is usually comprised of:
- Exercises to help rebuild your strength.
- Laser therapy to heal damaged tissue.
- Ultrasound technology to stimulate healing.
- And Hands-on manual therapy, another technique that helps improve flexibility and reduce pain.
