Here are some questions about the ways we can help treat shoulder pain.

Can Exercise Help My Shoulder Pain? 

When you’re in pain, it can be tempting to stop moving and stay in bed. However, it can be important to keep your body active. Regular exercise can help keep your circulation healthy, getting oxygen and nutrients to every part of your body. It can also keep your muscles flexible and strong, including those in your shoulder. So, while you don't need to do your usual intense workout, taking walks or doing gentle stretches can help with your shoulder pain.

Can Massaging My Shoulder Help?

Massage therapy can be an important aspect of chiropractic care. This technique can target the soft tissues in your shoulder, which are the most commonly injured part. Massage helps relieve pain and tension, softening the muscles and making them more flexible. It also helps improve circulation to the area, which helps aid recovery from injuries. Regular massages can be a great way to treat your shoulder pain while also managing stress, which can keep your body from holding pain-causing tension in the future.

Can Stress Cause Shoulder Pain?

Stress can manifest in your body as pain. If you’re holding tension, that tension may eventually make your muscles hurt. When you’re stressed, you’re also probably not living the healthiest life in terms of exercise, sleep, and nutrition. One way to help your shoulder pain subside is to manage your stress in a healthy manner. Massages can help with the tension as well as eliminating sources of stress that are unnecessary. While you might not always consider stress when you’re looking for the cause of shoulder pain, it can have a major impact.

How Can Spinal Adjustments Help My Shouler Pain?

If your spine is slightly out of alignment, it can cause pain and pressure in your body. This could impact the areas around the misalignment, including your shoulders. A chiropractor on our team can use his training to realign your body and help relieve the pressure. This can help provide pain relief.
