Neck & Shoulder Pain

Neck & Shoulder Pain

Neck and shoulder issues affect both office workers and athletes, often limiting daily activities and sleep.

Neck Pain Physiotherapy

Neck pain can come from poor posture, muscle tightness, or injury. We use manual therapy, mobility drills, and ergonomic advice to relieve stiffness and restore range of motion.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Frozen shoulder causes severe stiffness and pain over months. Physiotherapy helps by using joint mobilisation, stretching, and gradual strengthening to restore movement and function.

Rotator Cuff Injuries

Rotator cuff tears or impingements limit arm strength and overhead motion. We focus on targeted shoulder rehab, strengthening, and mobility drills to rebuild function and prevent re-injury.

Shoulder Dislocation Rehab

After a dislocation, the shoulder often feels weak or unstable. Physiotherapy rebuilds stability with strengthening, proprioception, and progressive loading so you can return to sport safely.

Upper Back & Tension Pain

Stress, posture, and screen time can cause chronic upper back tension. Our physiotherapists use manual release techniques, posture retraining, and mobility exercises to relieve tightness.


Neck & Shoulder Pain Physiotherapy in Singapore’s CBD

Neck and shoulder pain affect both office workers and athletes — limiting daily activities, reducing sleep quality, and impacting performance. Whether it’s stiffness from hours at a desk, pain after an injury, or long-term conditions like frozen shoulder, our physiotherapists provide treatment that targets the root cause.

At Strength Clinic Academy, we combine hands-on physiotherapy, posture correction, and progressive strengtheningto restore pain-free movement and prevent future issues.

Neck Pain Physiotherapy

Neck pain often develops from poor posture, long hours at a desk, muscle tightness, or sudden injuries like whiplash. It can cause headaches, stiffness, and restricted movement.

Our physiotherapists assess your posture, movement, and muscle balance to design a tailored treatment plan. This may include:

  • Manual therapy and soft tissue release to reduce stiffness.

  • Mobility drills to restore neck range of motion.

  • Strengthening exercises for deep neck stabilisers and upper back muscles.

  • Ergonomic advice to prevent pain from recurring in the office or at home.

By addressing both pain relief and long-term posture correction, we ensure results that last.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Frozen shoulder causes severe stiffness and pain that develops gradually and can last months or even years. Many clients struggle with simple tasks like dressing, reaching overhead, or sleeping.

Physiotherapy can significantly speed up recovery. At Strength Clinic, treatment focuses on:

  • Gentle joint mobilisation to improve shoulder capsule flexibility.

  • Stretching programs that gradually restore range of motion.

  • Progressive strengthening to rebuild shoulder control.

  • Education and pacing strategies to manage pain flare-ups and encourage safe activity.

With consistent physiotherapy, frozen shoulder recovery becomes shorter and more manageable.

Rotator Cuff Injuries

The rotator cuff muscles stabilise the shoulder joint, but they are prone to tears, impingement, and overuse injuries. These often cause pain when lifting the arm, weakness, and difficulty with overhead activities.

Our physiotherapists create a structured rehab plan that includes:

  • Targeted shoulder rehab to retrain rotator cuff muscles.

  • Mobility drills to improve joint positioning and reduce impingement.

  • Strengthening of supporting muscles like the scapular stabilisers.

  • Progressive loading to restore strength and function safely.

This approach allows clients to return to sport, work, and gym training with confidence.

Shoulder Dislocation Rehab

A dislocated shoulder leaves the joint unstable and more vulnerable to future injuries. Many clients describe weakness or a fear of the shoulder “slipping out” again.

Physiotherapy is critical to restore strength and stability. Our rehab program includes:

  • Strengthening of the rotator cuff and stabilisers for joint control.

  • Proprioception and balance training to retrain the nervous system.

  • Progressive loading through safe ranges of motion.

  • Return-to-sport conditioning for athletes.

The goal is to make the shoulder strong, stable, and resistant to re-injury.

Upper Back & Tension Pain

Stress, posture, and long hours at the desk are common causes of chronic neck and upper back tension. This can lead to stiffness, headaches, and reduced focus.

Our physiotherapists help relieve tension and retrain posture with:

  • Manual release techniques for tight muscles.

  • Mobility exercises for the neck, upper back, and shoulders.

  • Strengthening drills to build endurance in postural muscles.

  • Practical posture advice you can apply at your desk or home.

This combination reduces immediate discomfort and builds resilience for the long term.
