Shoulder pain is an extremely common musculoskeletal complaint and one that when present should be addressed with proper evaluation and treatment. The shoulder is a complex joint consisting of muscles, ligaments and tendons which are all required to create proper motion and stability. Shoulder complaints can be either acute/traumatic or chronic in nature. Regardless of the cause it is important to have a thorough consultation, physical examination and often time’s evaluation of diagnostic testing to properly diagnosis and formulate a treatment plan for shoulder injuries.

Common treatment for shoulder injuries consist of chiropractic manipulation, mobilization of the shoulder, stretching and strengthening exercises, the use of therapeutic modalities and the prescription of personalized home exercise programs.
