Whether you’ve been sidelined by an injury, taken time off due to life’s busy schedule, or just had a break from running - the question we hear most in the clinic is:
“When can I run again?”

At Balance in Motion Bondi, we treat runners of all levels. One common thread? The runners who include strength training are the ones who recover faster, run stronger, and stay injury-free longer.

Shoulder pain is one of the most common complaints we see at Balance in Motion Physiotherapy Bondi.

In this post, we’ll explain what frozen shoulder really is, why it happens, what to expect, and how to manage it in a way that puts you in control.
