Common Symptoms of Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can present in several ways, including:

  • Pain when reaching overhead
  • Discomfort during gym exercises
  • Difficulty throwing or serving in sport
  • Pain when lying on the affected side
  • Stiffness and restricted movement

Symptoms can range from mild irritation to significant pain that affects sleep and everyday activities. Whether your shoulder pain is affecting your work, sleep, sport or exercise, our experienced physiotherapists will guide you through every stage of recovery.

Common Shoulder Conditions We Treat

At Podium Physiotherapy, we combine over 20 years of clinical experience with evidence-based rehabilitation to help you overcome shoulder pain and return to the activities you enjoy. We take the time to understand the root cause of your symptoms and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your goals. Whether your shoulder pain is affecting your work, sleep, sport or exercise, our experienced physiotherapists will guide you through every stage of recovery.

Rotator Cuff Pain

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that help stabilise and move the shoulder. Rotator cuff-related pain is one of the most common causes of shoulder symptoms and can lead to pain when lifting the arm, reaching overhead or exercising.

Shoulder Impingement

Often associated with pain during overhead movements, shoulder impingement can affect work, sport and exercise. Treatment focuses on improving movement, strength and shoulder function.

Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder typically causes significant stiffness and pain that develops gradually over time. Physiotherapy can help improve mobility and support recovery throughout each stage of the condition.

Shoulder Instability

Instability occurs when the shoulder feels loose, weak or prone to slipping out of place. Rehabilitation aims to improve muscular control and restore confidence in movement.
