There are a number of shoulder issues that can benefit from chiropractic care. Some originate within the joints of the shoulder, while others stem from inflammation of the surrounding soft tissues. Strained muscles and inadequate scapular motion can play a role as well. There might even be a component from the neck that affects delicate nerve tissues relaying pain and sensory signals from the arm and hand. With over 4 decades in providing gentle chiropractic care to patients throughout Mission Valley, we can help relieve your pain and get you back to a normal healthy lifestyle!

Reduce Shoulder Inflammation
At Blakely Chiropractic, we’ve had great success helping patients with shoulder pain. Identifying the source of your problem is key. In some cases, reducing inflammation will make rapid changes and improve pain relief. Other times, restoring mobility and strengthening the shoulder will be most beneficial.
In cases where arm and shoulder pain is oppressively constant, brachial plexus irritation may be the cause. If so, Dr. Blakely will perform a complete evaluation to identify the most effective way to reduce trigger points, restore head and neck alignment, and ease the relentless pain associated with this maddening condition.
Pain is a problem in the United States (and beyond). The National Institutes of Health state that, "Pain affects more Americans than diabetes, heart disease and cancer combined." According to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, there are an estimated 100 million Americans suffering from chronic pain. In addition to back pain and headaches, musculoskeletal and arthritis pain top the list. While the conditions are common, they're not normal—and luckily, chiropractic care can help.
