How integrated care can help shoulder pain

Shoulder pain can be a crippling condition that affects individuals of all ages. It can be caused by many factors such as trauma, overuse, or degenerative conditions. For whatever reason, shoulder pain can severely limit your ability to perform everyday activities, enjoy your favorite hobbies and work. Fortunately, there is a solution that is an effective way to manage shoulder pain and improve your overall quality of life.

Integrated offices combine Chiropractic and Medical care.  Integrated care is a natural and non-invasive approach to healthcare that focuses on the relationship between the structure of the body and its function. These offices use a variety of techniques, including manual adjustments, soft tissue injections and rehabilitative exercises, to alleviate pain and improve function. In regard to shoulder pain, Integrated care can address the underlying cause of the pain and help to relieve symptoms.

One of the most prevalent causes of shoulder pain is a misalignment of the spine or joints in the shoulder. This misalignment can cause muscle tension, joint inflammation, and nerve irritation which leads to pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion. Chiropractic adjustments help to realign the spine and joints which reduces tension, inflammation, and nerve irritation and can lead to a significant reduction in shoulder pain.

Integrated offices can also use soft tissue injection to address muscular tension and trigger points in the shoulder area. This type of therapy helps to reduce inflammation and release tension, which can help to relieve pain and improve range of motion.

Together with manual therapies, integrated offices also prescribe rehabilitative exercises to help strengthen the muscles around the shoulder joint. These exercises can help to stabilize the joint, improve range of motion, and prevent future injuries or pain.

Overall, integrated care can be an effective way to manage shoulder pain without resorting to drugs or surgery. It is a natural and holistic approach.
