Chiropractic care can be a great way to manage and relieve pain, especially in your back, neck, and shoulders. Routine chiropractic therapy provides patients with a safe, non-invasive, non-addictive alternative to pain medications or invasive back surgery.

What are the benefits of going to a chiropractor for relief from pain?

The shoulder, the most movable joint in the human body, consists of a group of four muscles and their tendons, called the rotator cuff, giving the shoulder a wide range of motion. When there is damage, swelling, or bone changes around the rotator cuff, you will experience shoulder pain. It may be difficult to lift your arm above your head, or to move it forward or behind your back.

One of the most common complaints, shoulder pain can be caused by many issues, Such as:

Back pain can be debilitating. It can affect your sleep, prohibit daily activities, and lead to depression and anxiety. Some people may be anxious about trying chiropractic care, but it has been proven to be a safe and effective method of relieving pain. Although it may take several chiropractic adjustments to achieve total well-being, many patients report that they have felt relief from pain just after their first chiropractic adjustment.

So, are chiropractic adjustments painful? If the chiropractic adjustment is performed properly by a trained chiropractor, there should be no pain during treatment. It is natural for some people to feel a little soreness after an adjustment. After all, some bones and joints have been moved back into the right position after being out of alignment.

With summer here and people increasing their activities, whether in professional or amateur sports activities, it is possible that some type of injury can occur at any point in time. This could be due to a poor warm-up, ineffective stretching techniques, poor posture, or undetected problems in the spine or joints. In order to minimize permanent injury or persistent pain, many athletes will seek chiropractic sports care by a chiropractor who understands how the body responds to various treatments.

So what does a sports chiropractor do? They help athletes recover faster from injuries and also to prevent further damage.  They help the athlete optimize their athletic function through non-invasive joint manipulation, while helping improve muscle tone, balance, and performance. They can pinpoint and resolve small issues that could create problems when stressed by repetitive movement, even if it is currently painful.
