Are you experiencing any of these shoulder complaints?
Shoulder pain can occur in a variety of ways, such as after an acute injury or from gradual overuse. The discomfort you experience can be significant, with difficulty in everyday actions such as dressing, reaching or lifting, and impediments in sports or work.
We are happy to guide you through a variety of shoulder problems, including:
- Frozen shoulder (capsulitis adhesiva)
- Rotator cuff complaints (tendonitis, tendinopathy or tear)
- Subacromial pain syndrome (feeling of entrapment in the shoulder)
- Shoulder instability
- Stiffness of the shoulder
- Reduced function and pain after bone fracture, shoulder surgery or (sub)luxation
Understanding the cause of your shoulder pain
Shoulder problems are often the result of a combination of factors. We carefully examine what exactly is causing it with you. Possible causes are:
- Overexertion from repetitive motions or excessive lifting
- A fall or trauma to the shoulder
- Shoulder dislocation (luxation)
- Decreased mobility of the shoulder joint or neck/upper back
- Reduced muscle strength or imbalance in the shoulder girdle
- Osteoarthritis
Your personal route to shoulder repair
At Sento Medical, we always start with a comprehensive 50-minute intake. In this we take the time for your story and perform a thorough physical examination. We examine the mobility, strength and stability of your shoulder and surrounding regions.
Based on this, we draw up a personal treatment plan. This plan usually consists of an effective combination of:
- Manual therapy to optimize the mobility of your shoulder and associated joints
- Specific exercise therapy aimed at strengthening shoulder muscles, improving stability and restoring coordination
- Postural advice to optimize the load on the shoulder and adopt favorable posture
- Rehabilitation counseling after shoulder surgery
