Handling Shoulder Pain in Sacramento, California

handling-shoulder-pain-san-diego-californiaWhat sort of shoulder pain are you experiencing? Are you feeling weakness in the shoulder? Do you have numbness or tingling that reaches all the way down the arm? Is it a sharp, stabbing pain? Listed below are just a few common causes of shoulder pain:

  • Labral injuries
  • Shoulder dislocations or separations
  • Problems with the shoulder itself
  • Rotator cuff injuries

Nerve Damage and Shoulder Pain

When your shoulder itself is the underlying cause of the problem, therein lies the possibility of nerve irritation due to a misalignment in the neck. The nerves in your shoulder reach down the arm and to the hand. Therefore, any tingling, numbness or pain in the hand, arm, or shoulder could very well be related to a misalignment in the neck. If you have a history of head or neck trauma, you are more likely to have such a misalignment.

In order to address this underlying issue, we highly recommend you see an upper cervical chiropractor. We are trained to detect any misalignment that you have that could be causing nerve irritation. We begin the process of care with x-rays of the upper cervical area. Then we can begin gentle adjustments designed specifically for your needs.

Upper Cervical Chiropractic for Shoulder Pain

Many patients have experienced great relief after just one adjustment. Even if this isn’t the case for you, it’s very important that you continue to seek and receive upper cervical care. The advantage you receive from upper cervical care is that the adjustments work better and last longer than general chiropractic. These adjustments are performed without the twisting, popping, or cracking involved in general chiropractic. This offers a more natural means of pain relief. As a result, the body has more time to heal from the nerve irritation, and pain relief can be more enduring.
