Shoulder and arm pain can make daily tasks hard or uncomfortable. This type of pain often starts when joints, muscles, or nerves in the neck or shoulder do not move or line up the way they should. Common causes include poor posture, overuse, injuries, or strain on the spine that affects nearby nerves. Symptoms include aching or sharp pain in the shoulder, pain that travels down the arm, stiffness, weakness, tingling, or limited movement. Pain may increase with lifting, reaching, or turning the head. A chiropractor looks at how the spine, shoulder, and joints are working together. With focused treatment, a chiropractor can help to improve joint movement, reduce nerve pressure, and support better function of the body, without surgery. Care is aimed at helping the body move and feel better. If shoulder and arm pain is ongoing or limiting activities, it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a chiropractor to discuss natural, non-surgical relief. 

Shoulder and arm pain can significantly affect daily life, making simple tasks challenging. This pain often arises from issues such as rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, nerve compression, or even misalignments in the spine or shoulders. Symptoms can range from a dull ache and stiffness to sharp, shooting pain that radiates down the arm, limiting mobility and impacting overall comfort.

Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive approach to managing shoulder and arm pain by focusing on the musculoskeletal system. Chiropractors assess the shoulder, neck, and spine alignment to identify potential sources of nerve compression or joint dysfunction. Gentle adjustments aim to restore proper alignment in the affected areas, which can relieve nerve pressure, reduce inflammation, and encourage natural healing.

In addition to adjustments, chiropractors may recommend exercises to strengthen the surrounding muscles and improve flexibility. Stretching routines can help relieve tension, while strengthening exercises provide better support to the shoulder and arm, preventing further strain.
By addressing the root causes of discomfort, chiropractic care provides a holistic approach to managing shoulder and arm pain. This method promotes long-term relief by restoring alignment, enhancing function, and encouraging a more active, pain-free lifestyle without relying on medication or surgery.
