How does chiropractic care help shoulder pain?
Chiropractic care can help relieve shoulder pain by addressing the underlying issues that are causing the pain. Many shoulder pain cases are due to problems with the shoulder joint itself or with the joints and muscles in the neck and upper back. Chiropractors use a combination of manual manipulation and soft tissue techniques to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore proper function and mobility to the affected area.
Chiropractic adjustments can help restore alignment to the spine and improve range of motion in the shoulder joint. Manual manipulation can also release tension in the muscles surrounding the shoulder, promoting healing and reducing pain. Soft tissue therapies, such as massage and trigger point therapy, may also be used to help relieve pain and tension.
