Other Conditions

Rotator cuff, and labrum injuries are common causes of shoulder pain. But why do these structural tissues fail in some people but not others? What causes the shoulder to lose its ability to manage physical stress?   

Shoulder Pain

People with shoulder pain may have many treatment options available to them. Not all cases require surgery. Many improve or resolve with appropriate, well-timed physical medicine such as chiropractic and physical therapy.

But what if you have tried physical therapy and chiropractic but your shoulder is still not getting better? Or maybe you are hoping to avoid surgery, if possible. The answer may lie in the deep vital tissues that run through the shoulder – the arteries, veins, and nerves.

It is the responsibility of the bones, joints, and muscles to protect the vital internal structures. If the arteries and nerves are restricted and adhered, the shoulder joint won’t be able to move properly and its ligaments, cartilage, and muscles will be subject to overuse.

When we take the time and look closely, we can find the restrictions in the deep vital tissues. By working gently and patiently we can assist the body in releasing these restrictions, which allows the shoulder joint to return to normal motion. Then the injured structural tissues can begin to heal.
