What will a physio do for shoulder pain?
Shoulder pain can be both uncomfortable and concerning. Fortunately, your trusted shoulder physio in Auckland at Refine Health can help. We use a combination of strengthening, soft tissue work, taping, acupuncture, and rehabilitation exercises to relieve symptoms and support healing.
Your physiotherapist will provide an accurate diagnosis, and if needed, refer you for imaging or a specialist opinion to ensure a complete understanding of the issue before designing your tailored recovery plan.
How many physio sessions for shoulder pain?
The number of physio sessions varies depending on the type and severity of the injury, your overall health, and your commitment to the recovery plan. On average, most people see improvement in 4–6 sessions, with regular reassessment to track progress and adjust the approach as needed.
Which exercises should I avoid with shoulder pain?
When recovering from shoulder pain, it's best to avoid overhead lifting, heavy pressing, or rotational movements that place stress on the joint. Your physiotherapist will guide you through safe modifications and let you know which activities might delay healing or worsen symptoms.
If you notice swelling, sharp pain, or loss of movement, stop and consult your physio for next steps. Book an appointment with one of our expert shoulder physios in Auckland today.
