Shoulder Pain Treatment
About Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is a surprisingly common condition, so our therapists can give you excellent shoulder pain treatments in our Farnham clinic.
In the last week, over 100 people have searched for "shoulder pain treatment near me". And research has found that up to 67% of the population will experience some form of shoulder pain at some stage of their life - and this number is only going up.
Whether you have shoulder pain when lifting your arm or when you're swinging a golf club, our therapists are extremely competent at providing excellent treatment.
Two of the reasons shoulder pain is so common are:
- The shoulder is about the most complicated joint in the body!
- Its design makes it inherently quite unstable (a shallow socket for the ball to sit in - very much like a golf ball balanced on a tee!)
Common Causes Of Shoulder Pain
There are a number of problems that cause pain in the shoulder.
These include:
- In a collision, heavy fall or impact playing sport the shoulder joint can dislocate or fracture
- Long term, degenerative conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis can cause shoulder pain
- The most common shoulder condition are impingements and this is where a muscle, tendon, ligament or nerve gets compressed or restricted within the shoulder joint.
Our Approach
Shoulder pain physio treatment can be tricky, due to the joint’s complexity.
In other words, there are many shoulder conditions that can cause pain, so shoulder pain physiotherapy requires a thorough examination to assess your specific issue.

Several years back I was involved in a hit and run car accident which thankfully I was able to walk away from but I encountered a great deal of discomfort post-accident in both my lower back and leg. After a week or so I could sense that my injuries required professional help and that is when I contacted Lake Therapy and was booked to see physio, Mickey. I was assessed by Mickey who on my next session provided me with a summary of my injuries together with a plan to address each issue plus a timeline for recovery. Week on week I could feel that my injuries were improving and as predicted by Mickey I made a full recovery. I cannot praise enough Mickey skill and professionalism he also got me over my phobia for needles when he suggested acupuncture as part of my recovery plan. I continue to visit Lake Therapy once a month to ensure that any tweaks in my back or legs are addressed.Posted on Google
Tricia CarterSeptember 28, 2026Having had a lingering stiff neck for a few months I was eager to get some help but didn't know anything about available physio. Thankfully a friend recommended Lake Therapy where she had been going for a while. Straight away, it felt right. The desk staff welcome you by name and offer complementary drinks. There is information on display in the reception area about the different physiotherapists in the team. I have found Mikey to be very understanding and patient. He always explains what he is doing and is enthusiastic about his work. Advice is given without any pressure. When I was running late one time he very kindly arranged for me to make up the time with my next session. Much appreciated.Posted on Google
Susan TroySeptember 27, 2026After months of having treatment for my shoulder injury elsewhere with limited success, a friend recommended Lake Therapy to me back in May. She also praised Muhammad so I chose him as my therapist and I'm so glad that I did. I have had many physiotherapists over the years but I have to say that Muhammad is, without a doubt, the best that I have come across. I was put at ease straight away by his gentle and caring manner and then impressed by his obvious knowledge and experience. He was vg patient and explained his findings clearly and by the time he outlined my treatment plan I knew I was in good hands. Over the next couple of months he did a combination of mobilisation, massage and dry needling as well as giving me exercises to do at home. I'm delighted to say that after his treatment plan I was able to get back to playing pickleball again without any pain or discomfort at all. Unfortunately for me, 2 weeks ago I stumbled on some uneven gravel and rolled over on my ankle quite badly. It was excruciatingly painful, vg swollen and I couldn't put any weight on it at all. Muhammad saw me the same day, assessed the damage and started treatment straight away. After only 10 days and 2 more sessions with him I am amazed at how much it has improved already. I've always been sceptical about my ability to heal quickly but with Muhammad's excellent treatments and his positive encouragement that has changed. Thank you Muhammad! Finally, also a big thank you to Andrea, Peony and all the staff at Lake Therapy who are always so welcoming, helpful and professional. It is much appreciated. SusanPosted on Google

Isabella AshbySeptember 25, 2026Holly and Andrea always take amazing care of me whenever I'm at Lake Therapy! Andrea is always super friendly and welcoming with a delicious coffee and I don't know where I would be without Holly! My knees certainly wouldn't be in as good a shape as they are today without her. She's always puts me at ease and knows what my body needs 😊
