Shoulder Pain Treatment in East Grinstead
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is a common issue that can affect everything from your daily routine to your ability to sleep comfortably. Whether the pain is sharp, achy, or radiating down your arm, osteopathy can help relieve tension, improve movement, and support long-term recovery. If you’re looking for effective shoulder pain treatment in East Grinstead, we offer personalised, hands-on care tailored to the root cause of your discomfort.
What Causes Shoulder Pain?
Rotator cuff strain or tendonitis
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
Shoulder impingement
Repetitive strain or poor posture
Referred pain from the neck or upper back
Pain may come on suddenly after lifting or injury, or develop gradually over time due to overuse or posture-related strain.
How Osteopathy Helps
Osteopathic treatment aims to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve the way your shoulder moves and functions. Depending on the cause of your shoulder pain, treatment may include:
Soft tissue massage – easing tight or inflamed muscles
Joint mobilisation – improving mobility in the shoulder and upper spine
Muscle energy and stretching techniques – restoring balance and movement
Postural and ergonomic advice – to reduce strain in daily activities.
Medical Acupuncture
We may also use medical acupuncture, when appropriate, to target deep muscle tension, reduce inflammation, and stimulate your body’s natural healing response. This can be especially effective for chronic or stubborn shoulder issues.
