Why do shoulders get tight with heavy gym training?
The shoulder is a highly mobile joint that relies on balanced muscles, fascia, and joint mechanics.
With repetitive lifting, pushing, and overhead movements, tension can gradually build up — even when technique is good.
How Manual Osteopathy can support gym training (as maintenance care):
• Helps release soft-tissue and fascial tension
• Supports healthy joint mobility and coordination
• Encourages better movement patterns between workouts
• Assists the body’s natural recovery process
This is not medical treatment.
Manual osteopathy focuses on supporting the body’s structure and balance, helping shoulders adapt more efficiently to physical load.
Strong training works best with intelligent body care.
