Do you feel that something "pulls" or bothers you when you lift your arm? Do you find it difficult to sleep on your side or move your shoulder without pain?
Maybe you already tried pills, ointments or even injections... but the discomfort is still there. What if I told you that the root of the problem is not only in the shoulder?
In this article we will explain how chiropractic works as a solution for shoulder painand why it may be just what you need.
Why does the shoulder hurt?
The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body, but also one of the most unstable. Its structure depends on muscles, tendons and ligaments that can be easily injured.
The most common causes of shoulder pain are:
- Repetitive movements (such as when working or exercising)
- Injuries (blows, falls)
- Bad posture
- Accumulated neck and upper back tension
The interesting thing is that pain often does not start in the shoulder itselfbut is generated in another part of the body. This is where the chiropractic shoulder therapy can make a difference.
How does chiropractic help the shoulder?
A chiropractor doesn't just check your shoulder. He evaluates how your entire spine, neck, scapulae and clavicles are functioningbecause all these points work together.
If there are misalignments in the cervical spine or mid back, the nerves leading to the shoulder can become compressed. This leads to inflammation, weakness or constant pain.
What does the chiropractic shoulder adjustment do?
A chiropractic shoulder adjustment is a safe, precise and painless technique that:
- Frees the shoulder joint if it is locked
- Reduces inflammation and improves mobility
- Relaxes muscle tension in the neck, back and arm.
- Restores natural movement without medication
What if I have already tried other treatments?
Many patients who come in for consultation have tried several things before. What sets chiropractic apart is that not only treats painbut the origin of the problem.
In some cases, the shoulder pain is due to a postural compensationThe body has become unbalanced to "protect" another area (such as the lower back or neck). By correcting that with adjustments, the shoulder is relieved in a more lasting way.
What if it is not a serious injury?
Most shoulder pain is not from tears or fractures. They are from cumulative stressThe use of a bad posture, poorly made movements or a posture that has become misaligned over time.
In these cases, the chiropractic approach is ideal for achieving a joint pain relief without side effects.
