Overview

What is Neck & Shoulder Pain?

Neck and shoulder pain is often the price of a job done sitting down. We treat the stiffness and the headaches it refers, then fix the loading pattern underneath so it does not simply come back in a month.

For frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injury and impingement we combine manual therapy with progressive strengthening, plus practical workstation changes that take five minutes to make.

Is this you?

Who it’s for

If any of these sound familiar, this is the right place to start.

Talk to a Physiotherapist
  • Pain that has lasted more than two or three weeks
  • A problem that keeps coming back after it settles
  • Stiffness or weakness that limits work, sport or sleep
  • Recovery after an injury, operation or a long period of rest
  • Movement you have quietly stopped doing because it hurts

Our method

How we help

Full movement assessment

We look at how the whole chain moves, not just the painful part, and find the link that gave way.

Hands-on treatment

Joint mobilisation, soft tissue release and manual therapy to settle pain and restore range quickly.

Progressive exercise

A graded programme that rebuilds strength and control so the problem stops returning.

Education and self-management

You leave understanding what happened, what helps, and what to do when it flares.

What to expect

Your rehabilitation journey

  1. 01

    Settle the pain

    Weeks 1–2. Hands-on treatment and load management bring symptoms down enough to move comfortably.

  2. 02

    Restore movement

    Weeks 2–4. Range of motion and control work returns normal mechanics to the affected area.

  3. 03

    Rebuild strength

    Weeks 4–8. Progressive loading builds capacity well beyond the point where the pain stopped.

  4. 04

    Return and protect

    Weeks 8+. Sport, work and daily demands are reintroduced, with a plan to keep you there.

Your first visit

What happens at your first session

No mystery, and no waiting a week to start treatment — the first appointment is an assessment and a treatment.

60 minutes

  • 1 A conversation about your history, your symptoms and your goals
  • 2 A physical assessment of movement, strength, posture and joint range
  • 3 A clear explanation of what is causing the problem, in plain language
  • 4 Hands-on treatment in the same session
  • 5 A written plan with measurable goals and a realistic timeline

The difference

Why patients choose our clinic

One therapist, start to finish

You are not passed between staff. The clinician who assesses you is the one who treats you.

Appointments that are actually appointments

A full hour for your assessment, and no double-booking onto a gym floor.

Measured, not guessed

Progress is reassessed on schedule, so you can see what has changed rather than take our word for it.

Discharge is the goal

We aim to make ourselves unnecessary, and we tell you when you no longer need us.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Neck & Shoulder Pain

Can neck problems really cause headaches?

Yes. Cervicogenic headaches originate in the upper neck joints and usually respond very well to manual therapy plus targeted strengthening.

How long does frozen shoulder take?

It is a slow condition — often twelve to eighteen months untreated. Physiotherapy shortens that considerably and makes the painful phase far more manageable.

Will changing my desk setup fix it?

It helps, but on its own it rarely resolves an established problem. Posture is about how often you change position, not about finding one perfect one.

Do I need to stop working?

Almost never. We adjust how you work rather than whether you work.
