The shoulders are designed to carry the arms with not a lot of support. There are tendons, muscle and cartilage holding the joint in a ball and socket arrangement. Unlike the hips and legs, the shoulder is easier moved in an all manner of different ways. This puts great stress on the joint which can cause shoulder pain.
The muscles which support the shoulder are fairly thin and stretched in comparison to other joints, therefore they can be more susceptible to tearing and causing a dislocation. This is the reason the shoulder is one of the most oft injured anotomical regions.
Look deeper into shoulder issues and patients may not even remember the incident which caused the pain. It could be a very timely trauma such as a car accident or sports injury. Sometimes it is poor positioning or repetitive microtrauma.
A chiropractor can assess and look for signs in mobility of the shoulder and arm to pinpoint the problem. Although the arms are used so many times per day, the shoulder can freeze or cause problems with just a slight mishap. A common problem is the rotator cuff, as this can cause huge pain and needs to be carefully addressed.
As the shoulders are in close relation to the neck, which in turn is part of the spinal column, shoulder pain may be a secondary problem of spinal alignment. Using one of our chiropractic methods, we can assess, align and maintain a common balance for your well being. If the vertebrae or alignment is out of kilter, then this can have the knock on effect which can cause neck and shoulder pains. Headaches are also common with patients who are out of alignment.
Many PCP's and physicians refer patients towards meds or surgery. Unless there is a tear, this invasive practice of surgery can further upset the balance. There are so many risks with surgery, which occasionally don't work and medication only masks the pain. Chiropractors use experience and special equipment to find the real cause of the problem and create a thorough plan to help the body get better.
At The Spinal Correction & Wellness Center, we have well trained massage therapists and chiropractors who can help not only with the symptoms but create a balance for the body. Correct spinal alignment can control a lot of problems ranging from joint pain, muscular pain and visceral problems. Our patients are advised on proper dietary needs and are given a path to wellness.
Shoulder pain is often overlooked and not treated. If left for extended periods of time, muscle or ligaments can tear and cause even bigger problems. Using medication to hide the pain, is only effective for a few hours before the next pill is needed. A chiropractor can assess the problem, help correct the alignment of a patient and massage the region back in to good health. Shoulder pain is sometimes a secondary effect of a different problem. It could turn out the neck or vertebrae are at fault but the symptom is felt more in the shoulder itself. It is important to find out what problem has been done and use a chiropractor to help fix it. - 30287
