What is Shoulder Pain ?

Shoulder pain affects up to 20% of adults annually and can limit function, range of motion, and daily activities (Luime et al., 2004).

    Common Causes

    • Rotator cuff tendinopathy or tears.
    • Bursitis – inflammation of the bursa.
    • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis).
    • Referred pain from cervical spine or thoracic dysfunction.
    • Postural imbalances or repetitive strain from work or sports.

    Treatment Options

    Treatment at WCCC includes:

    • Chiropractic adjustments to improve joint mechanics.
    • Myotherapy and remedial massage to release tight muscles.
    • Targeted exercise programs for strength, stability, and mobility.
    • Ergonomic and posture advice to prevent recurrence.
