Chiropractic Treatment for Shoulder Pain
Chiropractic treatment for shoulder pain typically consists of hands-on adjustments and manipulations, using either special tools or tables. The most common methods for treating shoulder pain with chiropractic care include:
- Myofascial Release: Myofascial release focuses on relieving tension and tightness in the connective tissues around the shoulder.
- Articulatory Adjustment: This method of helping relieve pain involves the focus of improving the range of motion in specific joints - the shoulder joint in this case. A chiropractor will assess the existing range of motion and apply force during stretches to help improve mobility.
- Manipulation: Using a manipulation technique, a chiropractor can help decrease the pain from pinches nerves.
- Functional Treatment: A functional technique also helps increase the range of motion for your joints but it focuses on loosening the joint to relieve stiffness by moving the shoulder to its maximum range of motion and holding it there until you feel a release.
