Help for Shoulder Pain in Bismarck
Shoulder pain can be incredibly frustrating, limiting, and persistent. It can make everyday tasks challenging and keep you from doing all the things you love. Whether the discomfort is from overuse, an injury, or simply the wear and tear of daily life, finding effective relief is essential. Fortunately, natural chiropractic care and innovative therapies that we offer can help restore mobility and reduce pain effectively.
Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
While the shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body, its flexibility makes it prone to injury. Some common causes of shoulder pain include:
- Rotator cuff injuries – Tears or inflammation in these stabilizing muscles
- Impingement issues – When soft tissues get pinched between bones
- Tendinopathy – Chronic overuse leading to tendon pain and inflammation
- Arthritis and degeneration – Wear and tear that reduces joint function
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
“The nice thing with chiropractic is that there are a lot of adjustments we can do to help reset the mechanisms within the shoulder themselves,” says Dr. Mike. Chiropractic adjustments can help realign the shoulder joint, improve mobility, and reduce pain.
Dr. Mike also uses SoftWave® therapy, a cutting-edge technology that boosts the body’s natural healing process. This therapy has been effective for rotator cuff tears, tendinitis, and chronic shoulder discomfort.
Dr. Mike may also suggest some exercises and provide referrals for physical therapy to supplement chiropractic care.
What to Expect During Treatment
While every case is different, most people experience noticeable improvement within a couple weeks. Shoulder injuries can take time to fully heal—sometimes three to six months—but with the right care, patients can continue doing what they love with less pain and better mobility.
