Physiotherapy Iburg has stood for quality since 1993. Quality in treatment, professionalism and communication. This is how we help our clients to quickly and effectively relieve their complaints.
The shoulder joint consists of a socket, which is attached to the shoulder blade, and the head of the upper arm. A joint capsule and cartilage ensure smooth movements, while synovial fluid helps 'lubricate' the joint and absorb shock.
In shoulder osteoarthritis, the quality of the articular cartilage deteriorates, sometimes it even disappears completely, and the amount of synovial fluid decreases. This can lead to painful friction between the bone parts.
Symptoms of shoulder osteoarthritis include pain, stiffness, swelling, a cracking sensation and limitation of movement. The diagnosis is usually made on the basis of complaints and physical examination. Sometimes an X-ray can be taken to confirm the diagnosis and assess the severity of the osteoarthritis.
Although there is no cure for shoulder osteoarthritis, there are treatments to relieve symptoms and maintain shoulder functionality. Non-surgical treatments can reduce pain, such as medication for pain relief. Physiotherapy focuses on strengthening muscles around the joint and improving freedom of movement.
In some cases, when conservative treatments are not effective, a shoulder prosthesis (artificial shoulder) may be considered.
The reimbursement for physiotherapy varies per health insurance. We have contracts with almost all health insurers. Consult your care package and our Rates and Reimbursement page for detailed information.
The goal of physiotherapy for shoulder osteoarthritis is not only to relieve symptoms but also to improve quality of life by promoting a more active lifestyle. Consult a specialized physiotherapist for a tailor-made treatment plan and follow the advice and exercises for a healthy lifestyle.
