Conditions Treated

The rotator cuff is a set of four muscles attached by tendons to the bones of the arm. These muscles allow the shoulder to move in all directions. Damage or strain can cause pain and stiffness in these structures.

Bursitis in an inflammation of small cushioning sacs in the rotator cuff known as the bursae. If the bursae become inflamed, they may press against muscles and tendons, restricting their motion.

Frozen shoulder is a painful condition that may occur after your shoulder has been in a sling or otherwise held still for long periods of time.

Frequent repetitive motion may can tiny tears in tissue fibers at a rate faster than the body can repair the damage. This creates a constant state of inflammation.

Swinging a racket or club, constantly reaching upward in your job or hobby, or holding the shoulder in stressful positions for extended periods can all create repetitive strain injuries.

You can experience shoulder pain even when your shoulder is fine. For instance, a pinched nerve in the spine can sometimes send pain signals to the shoulder.

A chiropractic adjustment to the shoulder can correct the position of a dislocated joint or ease the pain of an arthritic shoulder.

One critical piece of taking care of your knees is making sure that the tibiofemoral (knee) joint is in proper alignment. If the evaluation reveals any muscle tightness or weakness, then corrective exercises will be prescribed to address those needs. A third, and a commonly overlooked piece in taking care of knees is assessing YOUR individual biomechanics with functional movements such as walking, standing, squatting which could also be a cause of undue stress on the knee joint if these activities are performed efficiently based on YOUR body type.
