Shoulder Injuries

Shoulder pain can be caused by many different factors. Osteoarthritis, tendonitis, and bone spurs can all cause shoulder pain. You can also injury your shoulder in a sports injury, accident, or from overuse. Dislocations, tears, and impingements are all common. Shoulder pain will cause stiffness, a decreased range of motion, swelling, and pain.

Shoulder Pain Relief

You may not realize just how much you use your shoulder until you hurt it and wince at every motion involving it. Fortunately, a few sessions with us can help you regain your range of motion and reduce any inflammation that is causing you pain and discomfort in your shoulder. The following are some ways our chiropractor can help you get relief for your shoulder pain.

• Chiropractic alignments and adjustments of the shoulder and arm can decrease pain and properly align your clavicle, shoulder, and scapula so you can move the shoulder freely.
• Acupuncture involves inserting thin needles into trigger points to alleviate pain. This will improve blood flow to your shoulder and reduce inflammation.
• Corrective exercises will help you stretch and strengthen your shoulder to improve your range of motion and prevent future injury.
• Physical rehabilitation first works to alleviate pain using hot and cold therapy and other techniques. We can then improve the strength in your shoulder and get you back to your normal movements, pain-free.

Our chiropractor may use one or more of these modalities depending on the extent of your injury. With each session of treatment, you will notice an improvement with decreased pain and a wider range of motion. Our chiropractor will determine how many sessions you need to fully heal and recover your shoulder.
