Common causes of shoulder pain
Shoulder Tendonitis & Rotator Cuff Problems
Rotator cuff injuries are caused by overuse, aging, or trauma, resulting in inflammation, weakness, and reduced shoulder movement.
Frozen Shoulder with Restricted Joint Mobility
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) causes gradual stiffness, pain, and difficulty with movement, making even simple tasks like sitting and standing difficult.
Shoulder impingement syndrome and bursitis
Shoulder impingement occurs when tendons get compressed between the bones, causing inflammation, pain, swelling, and difficulty with movement.
Shoulder arthritis and cartilage wear
Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis cause cartilage to wear away, leading to persistent pain, stiffness, and decreased function in the shoulder over time.
When should you seek treatment for shoulder pain?
long-lasting shoulder pain
Pain that lasts for more than two weeks could indicate rotator cuff damage, inflammation, or joint problems.
Shoulder stiffness and difficulty moving the arm
Difficulty lifting the arm, raising it above the head, or moving the shoulder easily could be a sign of frozen shoulder, arthritis, or tendinitis.
Shoulder pain that radiates to the arm or neck
Burning, tingling, or sharp pain radiating from the shoulder to the arm or neck could indicate nerve compression, injury, or inflammation, requiring expert evaluation.
Clicking, popping, or weakness in the shoulder
If you experience clicking, popping sounds, or weakness in your shoulder, it could be due to a labral tear, ligament injury, or misalignment.
Non-surgical treatment options for shoulder pain
Physiotherapy and muscle strengthening
Physiotherapy improves shoulder mobility, strength, and stability through targeted exercises and movement correction.
Strength training improves joint support, prevents stiffness, reduces pain, and restores full range of motion for long-term relief.
Alignment of joints through chiropractic care
Chiropractic adjustments restore the shoulder joint to its proper position, reducing pressure on the nerves and improving shoulder movement.
By correcting joint misalignments and muscle imbalances, chiropractic treatment reduces pain, improves shoulder function, and helps prevent future shoulder problems.
Soft tissue release with manual therapy
Manual therapy techniques such as deep tissue massage, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy can relieve shoulder stiffness, inflammation, and chronic pain.
These therapies increase circulation, break down adhesions, and improve muscle flexibility.
Shoulder Strengthening and Injury Prevention
Keeping your shoulders strong and mobile is essential to prevent pain, stiffness, and injuries.
Weak muscles, poor posture, and improper movements increase pressure on the shoulder joint, leading to arthritis, impingement, and instability.
improving shoulder muscle strength
Strengthening the rotator cuff, deltoid, and scapular muscles improves joint stability and function.
Exercises such as shoulder presses, resistance band training, and scapular stabilization drills help prevent pain and injuries.
increasing the range of motion of the shoulder
Stiffness and limited movement in the shoulder joint can cause stiffness and pain.
Stretching, mobility drills, and yoga can improve flexibility, blood circulation, and joint function.
Improve posture and movement patterns
Poor posture and incorrect movement patterns increase stress on the shoulder joint.
Postal training, ergonomic adjustments, and movement correction help maintain proper shoulder alignment and balance.
