The shoulder is the body’s most mobile joint — and it depends on a healthy neck, upper back and shoulder blade to work well. Flagler Chiropractic is at 1240 S. Oceanshore Blvd., Flagler Beach, FL — call (386) 439-9001.
Common shoulder problems
- Rotator cuff strain and tendon irritation
- Impingement from rounded-shoulder posture
- Stiffness and reduced range of motion
- Referred pain from the neck
A whole-chain approach
Shoulder pain often involves the neck and mid-back. We assess all of it, then may use adjustments to the spine, ribs and shoulder, soft-tissue therapy, stretching, ultrasound, electrical stimulation and K-Laser therapy, plus strengthening exercises for the shoulder blade.
For surfers, golfers and swimmers
Paddling and overhead sports load the shoulder heavily. See care for athletes.
When to get imaging
Suspected tears, dislocations, or pain after a fall may need imaging or orthopedic referral. We will tell you if that is the right next step.
