 FAQs

  • Shoulder pain can arise from a variety of sources, including rotator cuff injuries, shoulder impingement syndrome, tendonitis, bursitis, and frozen shoulder. Chiropractic care can address these issues by focusing on spinal and shoulder joint alignment, reducing muscle tension, and improving overall joint function. By identifying and treating the underlying causes of shoulder pain, chiropractors can help alleviate discomfort and support recovery.

  • Chiropractic adjustments help relieve shoulder pain by addressing misalignments and dysfunctions in the spine and shoulder joints. These adjustments can reduce pressure on nerves, improve joint alignment, and enhance overall mobility. Additionally, chiropractors may use complementary techniques such as soft tissue therapy, stretching exercises, and strengthening programs to support shoulder healing and improve function.

  • Yes, chiropractic care can be effective for treating rotator cuff injuries. Chiropractors focus on reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and restoring proper alignment in the shoulder joint. Treatment often includes adjustments to improve joint function, along with specific exercises and therapies to strengthen the rotator cuff muscles and enhance the recovery process. This comprehensive approach helps to alleviate symptoms and support long-term healing.

  • The time it takes to see improvement in shoulder pain with chiropractic care varies depending on the severity of the condition, the underlying cause, and individual response to treatment. Some patients may experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require a more extended course of treatment. Your chiropractor will develop a personalised treatment plan and provide an estimated timeline based on your specific condition and progress. Regular evaluations will help adjust the plan as needed to ensure effective and timely relief.
