Shoulder Pain

DISCOVER RELIEF FOR SHOULDER PAIN FROM OUR CHIROPRACTOR IN GREENWICH CT

Most of us do not think about our shoulders and the scope of activities that they help us perform, such as tossing a ball or reaching that itchy spot in the middle of our back. Situated between the neck and the upper arm, this ball-and-socket structure, consist of the shoulder blade, clavicle, and the upper part of the arm bone, muscles and inelastic tissues, which stabilizes your arms within the shoulder’s cavities. If you are experiencing shoulder pain, your chiropractor in Greenwich, CT at Indian Harbor Chiropractic can help you find relief.

Common Causes of Shoulder Pain

  • Dislocated shoulder - This is when the upper arm becomes displaced out of the shoulder’s cavity.

  • Shoulder Bursae - Small pockets of fluid are caught between the joints, creating an obstacle for free movement.

  • Frozen Shoulder - Your shoulder joints develop inflexibility, ache and progressively worsen without treatment

  • Rotator Cuff Injury - Tears in or overuse of the muscles and connective tissues that keep the upper arm bone in place, can result in a dull ache and fatigue within the affected arm.

  • Strains & Sprains - These two problems can occur through over overexertion or laceration of the muscles or fibrous tissue that connects and supports the body’s infrastructure.

  • Tendinitis - Recurring actions can lead to inflammation of the tissues that bonds the muscle to the bones


How Our Chiropractor Can Alleviate and Prevent Shoulder Pain

Dr. Gailes will perform a thorough evaluation to observe your range of motion and your reflexes. He will discuss with you what to expect from the chiropractic treatment as well as your individual course of treatment. Your chiropractor will determine the method best for your specific case. These techniques could include manual manipulation for misalignment problems, massage therapy to decrease the pain, or heat and cold packs to bring blood flow to the affected area. She may also recommend laser therapy to speed up recovery, reduce pain, and decrease inflammation. Lifestyle suggestions and nutritional counseling are also available to enhance the healing process.

The best! Dr Gailes is very attentive and managed to help me with my neck, back and arm pain. She really does care about her patients and goes above and beyond to help them, both during the session and by providing ergonomic tips which no other chiropractor has sat down with me and gone over. Easy to schedule with and great fun to talk with!

Dr. Gailes is the best!! I went to her for help with chronic neck and upper back pain. In just a few weeks my pain levels are almost down to zero and I have no more tension headaches. Dr. Gailes is very caring and gentle with her patients. She explains what she is doing and gives recommendations on how to improve ergonomics at home to prevent issues from recurring. Would highly recommend for chiropractic care in the Fairfield county area.

We sought Dr. Gailes' help for our 17-month-old son's recurring ear infections. Despite multiple rounds of strong antibiotics and antibiotic shots, his ear infection persisted, affecting his ability to learn to walk. After visiting Dr. Gailes, our son showed remarkable progress on the same day—he stood up by himself and took a few steps. Within days, he even started cruising! Thanks to Dr. Gailes, not only did our son's ears clear up, but the ear infection resolved much faster than we expected, even with the antibiotics we were administering. We're truly grateful for choosing Dr. Gailes.
