Are you suffering from pain in one or both of your shoulders?
Chiropractic care may be able to help alleviate the pain or even eliminate your shoulder pain altogether.
What causes shoulder pain or pain between the shoulders?
Over time, your shoulders can move out of alignment, which in turn causes pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility in the upper back and shoulder region. This can be caused by every day "wear-and-tear" or an acute injury such as a car accident or sports related injury. Poor posture while sitting at a desk for long hours is also a leading cause of shoulder pain and tightness between the shoulders. Regardless of the cause of the injury, Chiropractic care has been shown to help with a variety of shoulder and upper-back pain without the use of surgery or medicine.
