Shoulder Pain Rehab FAQS
Reduce Shoulder Pain
Do I see a Doctor for my shoulder pain?
The good news is that even though the level of pain and disruption to your life can be quite pronounced, it is very rare for there to be a serious underlying cause to your shoulder pain.
However, if you were to experience any of the following, a discussion with a medical professional would be advised
- Locking, clicking or giving way
- Unrelenting night pain
- New persistent cough
- Chest pains
- Shortness of breath
You should also seek care if you have experienced unexplained weight loss alongside your shoulder pain, or any fever, chills or signs of infection.
What caused my shoulder pain?
Shoulder pain often comes on in the days following a sharp increase in activity – for example cutting a hedge, painting a fence or decorating the house.
Very often you may feel okay at the time, only to find yourself in a fair amount of pain the following day.
Shoulder pain can also emerge gradually over weeks and months and can be very stubborn to shift.
What’s the plan to resolve my shoulder pain?
Here at Ion Rehab, we have access to world-leading EMS (electro-myo-stimulation) technology which allows us to provide an edge to the process of your recovery.
We combine this with expertly designed rehabilitation programs, written by experienced physiotherapy professionals.
These plans are based on material drawn from thousands of pounds worth of investment in ongoing education from some of the world’s leading physios.
You can therefore be confident that you will be receiving the gold standard.
Our process:
- Initial Consult (we introduce you to EMS and our rehab principles)
- Rehab Foundations (20 minute sessions delivered in our custom studios with the aid of EMS). Here we work on the shoulder, arm and core muscles.
- Rehab Mastery (for some people a second ‘phase’ of rehab may be needed)
- Ion Body – EMS enhanced training
Alongside this you will receive some ‘at home’ rehab materials, in the form of a ‘rehab resources’ pack to support your process and optimise your results.
How long will it take to recover from my shoulder pain?
Most episodes of shoulder pain can improve within 6 weeks. Though in some cases this can take up to 12 weeks, with a small minority taking up to 6 months to resolve.
For this reason, our Rehab Foundations program runs for 6 weeks. From there we may move onto the Rehab Mastery or Ion Body progressions depending on your preference and how close you are to achieving your goals.
Each session only takes 20 mins, saving you time and ensuring you are performing your exercises correctly.
