What’s Causing My Shoulder Pain?
Shoulder pain can arise from various sources. Explore some of the prevalent conditions that are treated by our skilled physiotherapists at our downtown office.
Shoulder Dislocation
A dislocated shoulder is a potentially serious injury in which your upper arm bone pops out of the cup-shaped part of your shoulder blade.

Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder is a condition that affects your shoulder joint. In many cases it involves pain and stiffness that gradually develops, tends to get worse, and then slowly recovers.

Shoulder Labrum Tear
The labrum is a soft cartilage in the shoulder socket. The labrum cups the head of the humerus with the socket. The mechanism of injury is usually though a fall on an outstretched arm or sudden tug in the arm.

Shoulder Separation
A separated shoulder happens when the ligaments between the collarbone and shoulder blade are torn. Often shoulder separations happen after a direct fall onto the shoulder, car accidents, or through contact sports.
