Shoulder pain can significantly limit your daily activities, from reaching for a cup of coffee to throwing a baseball. If you're struggling with shoulder pain, you're not alone.
At Northwest Injury Clinics, we understand the frustration and limitations that shoulder pain can cause. That's why we offer a variety of treatment options designed to help you recover from shoulder injuries and get back to living a pain-free life.
Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can arise from various factors and cause major disruptions in your day-to-day life. The first step to combatting shoulder pain is understanding where it is coming from so that you can address the root problem. Some common causes of shoulder pain include:
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Bursitis
- Arthritis
- Tendinitis
- Dislocations
- Poor posture
How Chiropractic Care Can Alleviate Shoulder Pain
Chiropractic care can be a highly effective treatment for various shoulder pain causes. Chiropractors focus on restoring proper alignment of the spine and joints. Misalignments in the spine or shoulder joint can irritate nerves and put undue stress on muscles and tendons, contributing to pain and dysfunction.
Through gentle, targeted adjustments, chiropractors can help improve joint mobility, reduce muscle tension, and improve overall nerve function. Chiropractic care can be a safe and effective alternative to medication or surgery for treating shoulder pain.

We will then perform a thorough physical examination to assess your range of motion, strength, and identify areas of tenderness.
