What type of common muscle tensions/pains can chiropractic help?
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is generally caused by an incorrect position of the shoulder itself that puts pressure on the nerves and rotator cuff tendons causing it to become inflamed, leading to other possible lesions (tendinitis).
Chiropractic can help ease problems that come from misaligned cervical vertebrae and shoulder joints which pinch and aggravate/degenerate the tendons, muscles and nerves of the shoulder.

Neck and Cervical Pain
Neck pain generally occurs due to poor posture, accidents, over-exertion or even spending too much time seated.
This happens because the nerves that exit the cervical spine become pinched causing muscles to contract or become tense. These tensions/contractions can be decreased with chiropractic care.
Who can benefit from Chiropractic Care?
Athletes and weightlifters
Many people enjoy exercising but may not be stretching sufficiently, which may eventually cause an injury. The same goes for weightlifters or bodybuilders lifting large amounts of weight. Chiropractic can help assure that you have the proper muscle balance, thus reducing risk of injury.
Anyone who has ever had an accident(s)
Chiropractors work frequently with people who have suffered any sort of accident, especially those who have suffered whiplashes of the cervical spine. Chiropractic helps people have a faster and less painful recovery time.
Anyone who has bad sleeping positions
Sometimes we may not sleep well at night due to sleeping in bad positions, in turn, affecting the way we spend our day. Chiropractic care can help reduce bad postures and offers advice on the best positions to sleep in, so one can wake rested and ready to go.
Long hours at the office or seated in front of computer screens
Depending on how our office/work space is set up, chances are with the many hours we spend seated, bad postural habits and inadequate break times will cause back and neck pain. Chiropractic care helps to decrease bad postural habits and educates patients as to how to properly set up a comfortable work space.
