Frozen shoulder — medically known as adhesive capsulitis — is a painful and often debilitating condition that affects thousands of people in Singapore each year. It typically develops gradually, causing increasing stiffness, discomfort, and restricted mobility in the shoulder joint. Daily tasks such as reaching overhead, getting dressed, or even sleeping can become difficult.

Surgery can be a life-changing event, whether it's to repair an injury, relieve pain, or restore function. But surgery is just one step in your recovery journey. What happens before and after the procedure plays a vital role in how quickly and successfully you heal.

Injuries can be frustrating, painful, and often life-disrupting.

With the right physiotherapy plan, you can go from pain to performance in a safe, structured way.

Deep muscle pain can limit movement, reduce strength, and interfere with daily activities. For many people, traditional pain management strategies such as medication or stretching are not enough. Dry needling has emerged as a targeted physiotherapy technique designed to relieve muscle tension, improve mobility, and reduce chronic pain.

Core stability is the foundation of athletic performance. Elite athletes across all sports understand that a strong, stable core not only enhances power and speed but also reduces the risk of injury. Core muscles do more than support the spine; they link the upper and lower body, allowing efficient transfer of force during dynamic movements. Unlocking the secrets of core stability can help athletes reach peak performance and maintain long-term physical health.

Neck pain is a common complaint for adults of all ages, and many people wake up with stiffness that lingers throughout the day. One of the often overlooked contributors to morning neck discomfort is pillow choice.

Understanding how pillows affect spinal alignment and muscle support is essential for preventing pain and improving sleep quality.

Stiff joints can make everyday movements difficult and impact overall quality of life.

Runners frequently experience knee pain, and two of the most common conditions are runner’s knee and iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome. While they may present with similar symptoms, the underlying causes, diagnosis, and physiotherapy interventions differ. Understanding these distinctions is essential for effective treatment and long-term injury prevention.

When it comes to movement and balance, proprioception plays a vital role in keeping the body safe and coordinated. Often referred to as the body’s sixth sense, proprioception is the ability to sense the position, movement, and orientation of your limbs without relying on vision. This sense is crucial for stability, injury prevention, and overall physical performance. Understanding and training proprioception can enhance your balance, agility, and confidence in daily activities or athletic pursuits.
