State 11 is the leading sports massage and soft tissue therapy clinic in Spalding, Lincolnshire, and is rated five stars on Google and Facebook.
Shoulder pain can be a distressing and limiting experience, with various conditions like rotator cuff problems and sub-acromial impingement affecting many people. At State 11 Soft Tissue Therapy in Spalding, we are trained and insured to provide expect care for people with shoulder problems, restricted shoulder mobility and shoulder pain.
The shoulder joint is a complex structure. It is made up of three bones:
-
the scapula (shoulder blade)
-
the humerus (upper arm bone)
-
the clavicle (collar bone).
These bones connect to each other and the sternum at four distinct joints:
-
the glenohumeral joint (where the humerus meets the scapula)
-
the scapulothoracic joint (where the scapula meets rib cage at the back)
-
the sternoclavicular joint (where the sternum meets the clavicle)
-
the acromioclavicular joint (where the clavicle meets the scapula).
The Role of Ligaments in Shoulder Stability
Ligaments play a crucial role in shoulder stability by connecting the bones together. The three glenohumeral ligaments (superior, middle, and inferior) keep the shoulder in place and prevent dislocation. Commonly injured ligaments include the coraco-acromial ligament (implicated in impingement syndrome) and the coraco-clavicular ligament (affected during acromioclavicular joint dislocation).
Key Muscles Involved in Shoulder Movement
The shoulder's complex movement involves numerous muscles, such as the rhomboids, trapezius ("traps"), the pectoralis major and minor ("pecs"), and the deltoid muscles. However, the most frequently injured are the four rotator cuff muscles, namely the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. These muscles play a crucial role in raising the arm and rotating the shoulder.
Addressing Common Shoulder Injuries
The most common shoulder injuries are rotator cuff injuries and subacromial impingement, as well as a dislocation of the biceps tendon.
Rotator cuff injuries generally cause difficulty reaching behind with the arm, reaching above the head, or experiencing pain when putting on a coat. We offers effective soft tissue techniques to improve these conditions.
Bicep tendon dislocation often causes issues when people try to lift their arm, and can also cause a feeling of heaviness down the arm. RAPID NeuroFascial Reset is very effective for this issue.
Subacromial impingement: Soft tissue therapy can be beneficial for subacromial impingement, reducing inflammation and improving shoulder mobility.

Went to Greg with calf pain. I'm a runner and rest frustrates me . Greg treated me and gave advice . I left feeling I could run..albeit steady...I've improved gradually over a couple of weeks . Love the practical advice and no hard sell . I debated a follow up appointment but turned out it wasn't necessary...Greg still gave advice and support . Tonight I got my best 10k time. I've recommended and will continue to do so. Thankyou !!

I wasn’t sure what to expect here, I’m neck back and shoulders have been annoying me for the last 3 years or so, at one point I couldn’t turn my neck to the left which was very annoying and dangerous whilst driving.
My friend recommended that I give State 11 a try.
Greg did some different techniques to my neck, back and shoulder’s. I lift a lot of weight and I didn’t realise that I didn’t have full flexibility in my shoulders but Greg showed me before and after, I am now a lot more flexible, I can also move my neck side to side no problem
The only problem to their business model is Greg was so good that I won’t need to go back for a very long time.
Well worth the money, 100% fixed me.
