🚨 Is your shoulder becoming increasingly stiff?

Are simple tasks like reaching into a cupboard, putting on a coat, fastening a bra or reaching behind your back becoming more difficult?

You may be experiencing Frozen Shoulder.

Common signs include:

Many people assume a stiff shoulder will improve on its own, but early assessment can help identify the cause of your symptoms and guide the most appropriate treatment.

At Pen Y Lon, our physiotherapists provide a thorough assessment and, where appropriate, can utilise diagnostic ultrasound to assess the structures around the shoulder and support diagnosis.

Treatment may include:
✔ Advice and education
✔ Manual therapy
✔ Tailored exercise programmes

If shoulder pain or stiffness is affecting your work, sleep or daily activities, physiotherapy could help.
