Fortunately, the physical therapists at Miss-Lou Physical Therapy in Natchez, Ferriday and Jonesville, MS offer a wealth of scientifically proven solutions.
In addition to pain deep in your shoulder joint, you might notice other symptoms, too, including the following:
- Shoulder weakness
- Stiffness or a tight feeling in and around the shoulder
- Limited mobility and reduced range of motion

We know you want to function at peak performance and not be hindered by limitations brought on by shoulder pain. That’s why our evidence-based approach to physical therapy focuses on addressing your impairments so you can see results as quickly and safely as possible.
When you come in for treatment, we won’t just look at your shoulder but at your entire upper extremity and spine to make sure we understand the exact cause of your condition. We’ll then provide a personalized treatment plan to eliminate pain at the source.
To accomplish this goal, the Miss-Lou Physical Therapy physical therapists use proven techniques to reduce pain and inflammation, increase mobility in the shoulder’s joint and soft tissue, and strengthen the muscles throughout the entire shoulder. We can also provide education on proper posture, ergonomics, and mechanics to prevent future injuries and ensure long-term success.

Shoulder pain has several potential causes, with rotator cuff injuries being the most common–around 2 million people in the United States are affected each year. However, bursitis, tendinopathy, and arthritis are also common culprits.

Nevertheless, our ultimate goal is to equip you with a profound comprehension of your body, enabling you to transcend the constraints of your condition and embrace a more wholesome lifestyle.
Central to our approach is patient education, empowering you with knowledge so that you need not feel restricted by symptoms or diagnoses.
