Shoulder Health and Targeted Care at Chiropractic Specialty Center®

Understanding the Root Cause of Shoulder Issues

Shoulder problems often stem from underlying issues in muscles, tendons, ligaments, or cartilage. However, conditions like neck and upper back imbalances can also contribute. Other contributing factors include:

• Autoimmune disorders: These conditions can cause inflammation in soft tissues.
• Diabetes: Increases susceptibility to tendon and ligament stiffness.
• Pregnancy: Hormonal shifts lead to ligament laxity, which can stress the shoulder region.

Comprehensive Assessment: The First Step Toward Shoulder Recovery

Achieving a full recovery from shoulder discomfort begins with a thorough assessment and targeted care. Shoulder discomfort is often linked to neck and upper back issues, particularly in individuals with spinal disc concerns. A detailed evaluation of the neck, upper back, ribs, and shoulder structures is essential to uncover the true source of your condition.

At Chiropractic Specialty Center® (CSC), our clinical teams focus on identifying and addressing the underlying factors contributing to shoulder problems. Through an integrated approach combining advanced chiropractic techniques and physiotherapy, we ensure you receive effective and personalized care tailored to your needs.

Unlike competing centers, we emphasize precision through comprehensive evaluations before starting care. Our evidence-based methods are designed to resolve your discomfort completely while minimizing the risk of recurrence.

Commonly Injured Shoulder Structures

Shoulder injuries often result in instability and long-term degeneration. Among the most affected structures are:

• Bursae: Fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction in the shoulder. Inflammation of these sacs (bursitis) can lead to significant discomfort.
• Tendons: Fibrous bands that connect muscles to bones. Tendon irritation or injury (tendonitis) frequently occurs with repetitive use.
• Ligaments: Sprains, or tears in ligaments, are common and often accompanied by tendon or muscle strain.
• Muscles and Tendons: Tears or overuse injuries can result in stiffness and loss of mobility.
• Degeneration: Wear and tear in the shoulder joint can lead to a loss of joint fluid and cartilage damage.
• Arthritis: Both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) can contribute to discomfort, often in conjunction with other shoulder conditions like frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis).

The Importance of Rotator Cuff Muscles

Rotator cuff muscles are critical for shoulder mobility. When injured, these muscles can cause discomfort in the front or side of the shoulder, especially when lifting or raising the arm. Left untreated, this can lead to difficulty with daily tasks and severe night-time discomfort.

CSC offers the most advanced non-invasive methods for treating rotator cuff injuries. Our clinical teams utilize state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to ensure effective recovery, focusing on repairing and strengthening the shoulder for lasting relief.

Unfortunately, this can lead to ineffective treatments, misdirected therapies, or even unnecessary surgeries.
