Shoulder pain is a condition where many patients experience discomfort and varying levels of pain caused by a health condition, injury, or other causes. A mild ache can develop into more significant and chronic pain if left untreated. If you are unsure what to do about your shoulder pain in Boca Raton, schedule an appointment with a chiropractor at Boca Health & Wellness Center.
The shoulder is the most movable joint in the body, which leaves it vulnerable to many causes of shoulder pain. When the shoulder becomes unstable, it can limit the range of motion and cause significant pain. Common causes of shoulder pain may include damage to the soft tissues, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Additionally, damage to the joint, separation, or dislocation can cause pain. Other common causes of shoulder pain may include tendinitis, bursitis, a rotator cuff tear, or a frozen shoulder.
Shoulder pain is diagnosed by seeing a Boca Raton chiropractor who will review your medical history, conduct a physical examination, and order diagnostic tests to determine the root cause of the shoulder pain. Diagnostic testing may include X-rays, CT scans, an MRI, ultrasound, or EMG.
Chiropractors offer various holistic treatment options without requiring invasive surgery or addictive prescription pain medications. Specific shoulder pain treatment is based on the extent of the condition, age, overall health, medical history, tolerance to treatments, and expectations for treatment. Chiropractic care treatments and recommendations may include activity modification, spinal adjustment, massage, physical therapy, and rest.
It is possible to see a massage therapist for shoulder pain treatment, especially if the root cause is muscular. Many chiropractors recommend that patients undergo massage therapy with their current chiropractic care treatment plan. Though massage can help with shoulder pain, if your pain is caused by poor posture, injury, or a strained ligament, a chiropractor can help solve that problem with a chiropractic adjustment.
