Arthritis results when cartilage is worn out. Cartilage is important for pain free joint movement. Through the natural aging process cartilage can deteriorate, leading to a stiff painful shoulder.
A shoulder dislocation from an accident or sports injury can result in ongoing shoulder instability. The shoulder can persistently dislocate from the socket causing pain, uncertainty and damage to the shoulder.
Frozen shoulder – or adhesive capsulitis – is a common shoulder problem. Adhesive capsulitis means there is an inflammation (capsulitis), resulting in tissue thickening and adherence to other tissues (adhesive)
The rotator cuff is the prime mover of the shoulder, rotating the shoulder in many planes. Acute or chronic shoulder pain caused by rotator cuff tears can be resolved through integrated treatment.
Shoulder impingement is mechanical compression of the rotator cuff against the acromion bone. Shoulder impingement may occur with or without the development of a rotator cuff tear.
Neck and shoulder pain may be caused by many factors, including poor posture, whiplash, cervical degenerative disease. The team at Shoulder Clinic SA will diagnose the specific cause and address it, taking an integrated approach to treatment.
