The shoulders are designed to carry the arms with not a lot of support. There are tendons, muscles and cartilage holding the joint in a ball and socket arrangement. Unlike the hips and legs, the shoulder is easier moved in all directions. 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. Delve deeper into shoulder pain and patients may not even remember the trauma which caused the pain. 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 in the neck or cervical area. 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 cause neck and shoulder pains. Headaches are also common with patients who are out of alignment. Many GP’s and physicians refer patients towards medicine or surgery. Unless there is a tear, this invasive practise or putting unnatural tablets into your body can further upset the balance. There are many risks with surgery, which occasionally go wrong and medication only masks the pain. Chiropractors use experience and specific equipment to find the root cause of the problem and create a thorough plan to help the body mend.
