Shoulder Pain

If you are experiencing shoulder pain due to a rotor cuff tear or a sports injury, the discomfort can reduce your range of motion and affect your quality of life. Your shoulder is one of the most complex joints in your body and with every movement, you are turning and twisting it. At Infinity Chiropractic Wellness Center in Red Bank, NJ, we provide various treatments to reduce your pain and improve your overall health.

Causes of Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can occur from a variety of causes. Since the shoulder is a complex muscle group that is used often, it is common for an injury to happen in this region. Some common causes of shoulder pain include:

•             Frozen shoulder

•             Arthritis

•             Bursitis

•             Rotator cuff tear

•             Subluxations

•             Tendonitis

While each one of these conditions impacts a different area of the shoulder, they can cause significant pain and limit movement. Not only that, but they may also not heal properly on their own, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible.

Treatment for Shoulder Pain

Once we provide a full diagnosis and an examination, we can then work closely with you to address the underlying cause of your pain. Our chiropractor may utilize chiropractic adjustments, which involve applying gentle pressure to the joint and muscles to properly align the joint. The treatments can also improve blood flow to the affected region, reduce any tension, and increase your range of motion. In some cases, the shoulder pain may be due to nerve damage. When we realign the shoulder, it can reduce the impact on the nerves and reduce your discomfort.

If your pain is from a rotor cuff tear, you may find massage therapy beneficial. The therapy can help reduce inflammation that may be causing pain and improve your mobility. We sometimes combine treatments, as they can help you heal faster so you can return to your active lifestyle.
