When Should You See a Shoulder Physiotherapist? 

You should consider seeing a shoulder physiotherapist in Melbourne if you have: 

Recently Injured Yourself 

If you’ve recently injured your shoulder, don’t put off visiting a physio for shoulder pain. Delaying treatment can make your injury worse, so the sooner you get started with physiotherapy, the faster the healing process. 

Had Surgery on the Shoulder

For a full recovery, shoulder therapy and rehabilitation are necessary. You’ll need a shoulder specialist in Melbourne to guide you through rehab exercises and get your shoulder back to its full working condition again. 

Ongoing Shoulder Pain 

If you have unexplained shoulder pain, a physio will not only be able to help ease the pain, but they’ll also be able to diagnose the cause and offer an appropriate treatment. 

What to Expect During a Shoulder Physiotherapy Session 

When you step into our shoulder physiotherapy Melbourne clinic, a physiotherapist shoulder specialist will start with a full assessment before deciding on what’s right for you. 

Detailed Shoulder Assessment 

Your shoulder specialist physio will ask for your medical history and some background on your injury or pain. After you’ve discussed this, your physio will physically examine your shoulder. This may be slightly uncomfortable, but it will help them understand where the problem lies. If necessary, your physio may recommend diagnostic tests such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRI scans to determine the extent and nature of your specific shoulder issues.

Personalised Treatment Plan

Once your shoulder physio has given you a diagnosis for your shoulder problems, they’ll create a proper treatment and recovery plan just for you. Your treatment plan will include your goals for shoulder rehabilitation, an overview of the treatment techniques that will be used, and a recovery time estimate. 

Shoulder-Strengthening Exercises 

As part of your personal recovery plan, our shoulder physiotherapist will teach you specific therapeutic exercises and movements to regain optimal strength, stabilise your shoulder, and improve the range of motion in the joint. You’ll receive a custom exercise program to help you keep improving. 

Manual Therapy 

As well as therapeutic exercises, your shoulder physiotherapist will use a combination of hands-on treatments like massage, soft tissue manipulation, and joint mobilisation to relieve pain, realign the joint, and improve the way your shoulder moves. 

Modalities 

Manual therapy is often complemented with modalities like electrical stimulation, shockwave therapy, ultrasound therapy, and dry needling. These treatments help to manage pain, reduce inflammation, and speed up your shoulder’s healing, lowering your recovery time. 

Education 

Our shoulder specialists won’t just let you go when you’re healed. They make it their mission to help you understand the nature of your injury, learn how to manage your pain, perform rehab exercises at home, and prevent re-injury.
