Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is a common condition caused by various factors, including injuries, poor posture, arthritis, and more. Fortunately, chiropractic care may help address shoulder discomfort in many cases.
What Are the Main Causes?
One of the major causes of shoulder pain is injury. This can occur because of accidents or other types of trauma to the area, such as falls or contact sports injuries. Injuries like these can lead to strained muscles in the shoulders and neck area, which can become inflamed and painful.
Another common cause of shoulder discomfort is bad posture. Sitting at a desk all day with your shoulders rounded forward can lead to tension and inflammation in the muscles around your upper back and shoulders. If you have a pre-existing medical condition like arthritis or osteoporosis, poor posture can worsen these symptoms.
Our Natural Approach
The type of shoulder pain we address most often at Commonwealth Family Chiropractic is discomfort that radiates from the neck. Dr. Eriksen can help those with nagging pain not caused by an injury.
By using manual manipulation techniques and other therapies, Dr. Eriksen can ease tension in your muscles and relieve inflammation that is causing your pain.
