If you've played sports that heavily rely on one arm, such as baseball, tennis, or volleyball, you may have unknowingly set the stage for future shoulder problems. Repetitive motions and overuse can lead to imbalances and misalignments that make you more susceptible to shoulder pain and injury.
Similarly, consistently sleeping in awkward positions or carrying tension in your shoulders can contribute to a host of issues over time.
While it may seem logical to focus solely on the shoulder when experiencing pain, it's crucial to understand that the root cause may lie elsewhere in the body. Two major areas that can contribute to shoulder pain are the upper neck and the mid back.
Misalignments in the upper neck can interfere with the nerves that control your shoulder, leading to pain, weakness, and dysfunction. Chiropractic adjustments are the most effective way to correct these misalignments, allowing your shoulder to feel better, move better, and function optimally.
Your mid back plays a significant role in shoulder movement. If misalignments are present in this area, they can alter the way your shoulder moves, leading to inflammation, degeneration, and discomfort over time. Adjustments to the mid back and shoulder can help restore proper movement patterns and alleviate pain.
Our chiropractors take a comprehensive approach to shoulder health, addressing misalignments and imbalances not only in the shoulder itself but also in the upper neck and mid back. By correcting these issues, we can help your shoulder heal correctly from past traumas and prevent future problems from developing.
Every patient's shoulder pain is unique, which is why we develop personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. In addition to chiropractic adjustments, your plan may include exercises, stretches, and lifestyle modifications designed to support your recovery and maintain long-term shoulder health.

Yes, chiropractors work on shoulders. The shoulder is a complex system with many muscle and ligament connections. This is why we focus not only on the specific area of pain, but also the surrounding support the shoulder has. This helps us truly discover the CAUSE of the issue and then solve the problem. Adjustments to the spine provides relief or stimulation of the nerves that supply the shoulder. We've had massive success with shoulder issues and will continue to help you keep your shoulder issues away. If you have a shoulder issue then please feel free to schedule your first appointment HERE.
There are many things that can cause shoulder problems. Physical traumas from sports, exercise, or accidents can lead to immediate shoulder pain. If the problem is never corrected, then oftentimes the shoulder heals incorrectly and the same pain can be experienced again in the near future. Poor posture while working, sleeping, driving, or even watching tv can lead to shoulder misalignments as well. The alignment needs to be corrected in order for your shoulder to start to function correctly again.

Yes, chiropractors are very good at diagnosing and treating shoulder and arm pain. In fact the majority of the time, the cause of the issue stems from the spine. If the spine is misaligned and affecting the nerves that control the shoulder, then you can do all the rehab you want to the shoulder without benefit because the issue is actually in the spine. This is why we have a full body approach to ensure that nothing goes unnoticed. When we discover the cause of your shoulder pain and arm pain we are then more equipped for getting better long term results.

There are 4 joints present in the shoulder, meaning there are several ways to adjust the shoulder. Which shoulder adjustments to perform strictly depends on the issue at hand. A gentler approach may be used for shoulder pain that is more acute. A muscular approach may be used if there is muscular damage or scar tissue buildup that needs to be addressed. Multiple different shoulder adjustments may be used if there are issues at multiple joints that make up the shoulder. It truly depends on what you show up with. This is why we refuse to have a "cookie cutter" approach and instead treat you for exactly how you show up. If you've been experiencing shoulder problems then please feel free to schedule your first appointment HERE.
Shoulder tightness can occur in a variety of different ways for a variety of different reasons. If your shoulder is tight due to joints being misaligned, then a chiropractor is your best approach. Otherwise, the shoulder tightness will continue to come back because the CAUSE was not addressed. Chiropractors, including ourselves, often refer out to massage therapists for muscular issues once the neurological/skeletal issue is addressed first. We truly favor a team approach to get the best results for you and the rest of our Limitless Chiropractic family!
