Tight Shoulder? Dont Just Stretch It...

Описание: Shoulder feeling stuck or tight?

Struggling to reach overhead, fasten a seatbelt, or get your arm behind your back?

These are classic signs of restricted shoulder mobility, often caused by joint stiffness, muscular guarding, or previous injury that never fully settled.

Here’s what we often see...

• You avoid certain movements without realising it
• One arm moves fine, the other feels “blocked” or “stuck”
• Overhead work or gym sessions feel uncomfortable or limited

The most common mistake we see is just stretching...

Stretching alone won’t unlock a restricted shoulder, especially if the joint capsule is tight or muscles are guarding.

In fact, it can sometimes make things worse if done too aggressively.

What actually works...

Manual therapy to improve joint glide and release soft tissue tension
Guided movement drills to retrain motion in a pain-free way
Progressive strengthening to build control and confidence
