Shoulder misalignment causes shoulder, arm, neck and upper back pain, and shoulder and arm stiffness and weakness. I recommend you lean some basic shoulder anatomy, causes for shoulder misalignment, and how shoulder misalignment is successfully treated. Then, if and when you experience shoulder pain and restriction, you may avoid unnecessarily shoulder surgery. Otherwise, you may undergo the risks and side effects of anasthesia and surgical wounding. And, after your shoulder surgery, your shoulder misalignment will still remain, preventing the shoulder pain, weakness and stiffness from going away.
Traumatic shoulder injury may injure shoulder muscles, ligaments and cartilage and surgery may be required to repair the damaged tissue. However, the same trauma injuring your shoulder tissues, misaligns your shoulder joint. Complete treatment for this shoulder injury not only requires surgery, but also corrective procedures to restore normal shoulder mechanics. Otherwise, shoulder rehabilitaton will be incompete or unsuccessful, and you will still have shoulder pain, weakness and stiffness.
The four joints/articulations of your shoulder may misalign individually or as a group. Not only will shoulders misalign from direct shoulder trauma, your shoulders may misalign from postural distortion caused by anterior head carriage and upper cervical spinal misalignment.
Successful holistic healthcare requires eliminating joint pain and dysfunction to reduce the over-all stress burden to you, the patient. Expert shoulder diagnosis and corrective care may be received from the best doctors of chiropractic. Some chiropractors see the human body as a whole. They not only correct your abnormal shoulder biomechanics, but they also eliminate postural distortion through specific upper cervical spinal care, other spinal corrective procedures and therapeutic exercise. Pain free, normal shoulder function requires aligned shoulder joints and balanced posture and shoulder muscles.
Active, full range of motion corrective exercise is required to balance your shoulder muscles and maintain your shoulder alignment and function. Specific spinal therapeutic exercise is required for successful spinal alignment. Properly balancing your posture provides a stable, symmetrical foundation to orient your shoulders for proper shoulder motion and function.
