The shoulder is a complex region of the body that often incurs injury. Due to its frequent use in a variety of day-to-day activities as well as sports, it is vulnerable to pain and discomfort. No matter the cause, irritation in the shoulder region should be treated with physical therapy near Kings Park at The Physical Therapy Experience.

What Shoulder Injuries Can Physical Therapy Treat?

Many of the most common injuries of the shoulder can successfully be managed with physical therapy without the need for surgery. These include:
  • Frozen Shoulder - also known as adhesive capsulitis, is the gradual reduction of range of motion over time that is not only inconvenient but is painful.
  • Shoulder Bursitis - refers to the impingement of the bursa located between the shoulder blade and the humerus bone.
  • Rotator Cuff Tendonitis - occurs when the four adjoining muscles of the rotator cuff get pinged underneath the shoulder blade.

And More!

How Can Physical Therapy near Kings Park Help?

No matter the injury you may be suffering with, The Physical Therapy Experience located in Oceanside NY and Smithtown NY can help you. Shoulder injuries are difficult to self-diagnose so it is essential to visit with a physical therapist as soon as you notice pain or discomfort.

During your physical therapy evaluation, a physical therapist from our team will examine the injured shoulder and discuss your lifestyle factors and the progression of your pain and discomfort in order to create an individualized action plan best for you.

This individualized action plan will include:

  • Modalities
  • Therapeutic Exercises performed in-office
  • Lifestyle modifications
  • At-home exercises

And More!

Depending on the nature of your injury, physical therapy is your best option as it’s non-invasive and less costly than proceeding with surgery. If your injury is severe enough to need surgery, a physical therapist from our team can help guide you through the process including pre-surgical rehabilitation and post-surgical rehabilitation to promote the best possible healing.
