Could your shoulder pain actually be a neck issue?

When you experience pinching or pain while reaching overhead, it makes sense to focus all your attention on the shoulder itself. But a new clinical study found that you might want to take a look at the neck as well.

In patients with subacromial shoulder pain, researchers found that adding hands-on treatment to the neck improved pain and function more than exercise alone!

If you have been stretching and strengthening your shoulder pain and not seeing results, make an appointment with our clinic today!

Are you tired of constantly icing your Achilles, shoulder, or elbow without seeing any real progress?

A new research review found that icing may not be effective for ongoing tendon pain. That’s because many chronic tendon issues are now understood as tendinopathy, involving degenerative changes in the tendon tissue rather than just inflammation.

The right approach focuses on targeted movement and progressive strengthening to help rebuild tendon health.

Does lifting your arm make you hesitate? 💪

When you are living with shoulder pain, every movement can feel like a gamble. It is completely normal to feel nervous about moving or lifting your arm because nobody wants a painful flare-up.

Avoiding movement may seem like the safest choice, but gentle, progressive exercise is often the key to reducing pain, building strength, and restoring confidence.

You don't have to figure it out alone.

If shoulder pain is holding you back, schedule an appointment with us and let us help you get moving again!

Your child carries more than just books; they carry the weight of their school day. 🎒

A backpack that's too heavy or worn incorrectly can contribute to neck, shoulder, and back pain. Experts recommend keeping backpack weight under 10–15% of a child's body weight, wearing both shoulder straps, and adjusting the pack so it sits close to the back.

Check out this infographic for simple tips that can help keep your child comfortable all school year long, and schedule an appointment if they're experiencing pain or poor posture. ✅ https://chiroup.short.gy/vVrKoT

Could your cup of instant coffee be linked to your wrist pain? Possibly!

A recent study found a link between instant coffee consumption and carpal tunnel syndrome.

It’s important to know that these are early findings, so you don’t have to throw away your coffee quite yet. But an important reminder that carpal tunnel syndrome might be due to more than just your keyboard and mouse.

If you are struggling with carpal tunnel syndrome, we’re here to help sort out all the factors that might be contributing.

Can rehab exercises really help with scoliosis? 🦴🤔

Scoliosis is a complex spinal condition that affects not only the structure but also the day-to-day function of the body.

A new study found that specific, targeted rehabilitation exercises successfully reduced spinal curvature in scoliosis. Even better, the exercises directly improved spinal and overall body function during walking, leading to better symmetry and more even muscle balance.

Early assessment and functional movement are vital for those with scoliosis. Contact our office today to see how our evidence-based approach can help support your spinal health and mobility! 🩺✨

Could a simple nerve exercise help with frozen shoulder?

Adhesive capsulitis, commonly known as frozen shoulder, is notorious for causing intense stiffness and a painful loss of arm movement. Most traditional care focuses entirely on aggressively stretching or mobilizing the stiff shoulder joint, which can be uncomfortable.

But a new study found that a specific nerve mobilization technique reduced pain and improved function compared with the traditional approach.

While it may seem that nothing is helping with frozen shoulder, sometimes a different approach is needed. Give us a call today to discuss your options!
