Shoulders are a very intricate part of the human body. There are several moving parts, ligaments, tendons, supportive muscle structures, bones, etc. If any part of the shoulder is damaged, inflamed, or strained, you can experience pain and stiffness. We recommend immediate treatment to avoid long-term damage.
At Mount Royal Village Family Chiropractic, Acupuncture & Massage, our goal is to help patients recover from shoulder pain and maintain a lifestyle that prevents it from happening again.
The shoulder has several components like the upper arm bone, collarbone, shoulder blade, shoulder joint socket or glenoid, rotator cuff, and several muscles.
Damage to these components can result in shoulder pain. The most common causes of damage are:
If you experience any pain, stiffness, and numbness in and around your shoulder, you should visit a doctor immediately. We carefully examine the shoulder segment to determine the root cause of the problem and come up with a treatment plan that will work to alleviate your pain.
The treatment for shoulder pain depends on the underlying condition. For example, a bone fracture will require a different treatment approach than a strained tendon. Our team uses a combination of exercises, lifestyle changes, chiropractic techniques, massages, and stretches to ensure the shoulder heals well and there are no long-term consequences of the injury. The treatment will reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and repair the soft tissue around the injury.
