Shoulder pain may be caused by musculoskeletal injuries, poor posture, repetitive strain, rotator cuff problems, or referred pain from spinal misalignment. Symptoms can include aching, stiffness, restricted range of motion, weakness, and difficulty performing overhead or daily activities. Left untreated, shoulder pain can progress to chronic discomfort and functional limitations.
A chiropractor may treat shoulder pain by identifying postural or spinal imbalances contributing to the condition. Neurological adjustments and soft tissue therapies help restore proper alignment and movement in the shoulder joint, relieve muscle tension, and enhance nerve function. Personalized rehabilitation exercises can improve strength, flexibility, and prevent recurrence, leading to lasting pain relief.
