The duration of recovery from shoulder impingement varies depending on the severity of the condition and how well you respond to treatment. Most patients see a noticeable improvement within a few weeks of consistent physiotherapy. However, complete recovery could take several months. Our physiotherapists will work with you to set realistic goals and timelines.
