Degenerative changes like arthritis and repetitive strain and overuse injuries are also common, as are injuries following accidents. Many shoulder-related issues can occur as a result of lifting and carrying heavy bags or loads, resulting in an uneven distribution of weight and force. Irritation or inflammation of the rotator cuff Nerve injuries and impingements (“pinched” nerves) Injuries to ligaments or tendons, including tendinitis The shoulder is a complex joint structure and, as a result, there are many factors that can contribute to shoulder pain, stiffness, and mobility issues. What are the primary causes of shoulder pain?
Seeing a chiropractor for regular care and gentle adjustments can ensure the spine and the surrounding tissues remain in ideal alignment to avoid irritation. Practice good posture at work and school, and if you use a computer, make sure the screen is properly positioned to avoid strain. Plus, therapeutic exercises can improve the neck's strength and flexibility to avoid future injury.īe sure to limit the weight of the loads you carry on a regular basis and use a supportive pillow when you sleep or on long commutes to provide your neck with the rest it needs to prevent irritation and inflammation in the spine and around nerves and muscles. Non-force chiropractic uses gentle pressure and stretching in a specific sequence to realign the vertebrae of the neck without "cracking" the spine, relieving nerve impingements and restoring pain-free range of motion. How can chiropractic care help me find relief for my neck pain? In addition to the forces exerted on it through regular motions, the neck can also become strained by poor posture, bad ergonomics at work or school, and carrying heavy bags like backpacks, messenger bags, and large handbags. Plus, strained muscles and other soft tissue issues in the neck can result in pain and other symptoms that radiate into the upper back and arms, and neck strain is also a common cause of chronic “tension” headaches. With so many strains and stresses, it's no wonder neck pain is a common complaint.
Call us for a consultation to see if the Webster’s Technique could help you feel and birth better.The neck has a big job to do not only does it provide the main pathway for nerve pathways from the brain to the spine and the rest of the body, but it also has to support the head – all 11 pounds of it! Plus, it needs to turn and twist in multiple ways all day long. If you experience back pain, sciatica, pain in your pelvis, hip pain, extra popping or cracking in your back or hips, trouble rolling over in bed, round ligament pain, or groin pain, you may have a misalignment in your pelvis. Adjustments to remove nerve interference and create balance in pregnancy are extraordinarily gentle and specific. Using the Webster’s Technique to assess for pelvic misalignment and nerve interference during pregnancy helps us find and correct only the fixated joints. Braces or kinesiotape on knees, wrists, ankles, etc. Pregnancy belts, such as the Serola belt, can help stabilize hypermobile joints. Lots of popping, cracking, “throwing out” your back, joint sprains or strains are all signs of excessive hypermobility. So it becomes important to protect these hypermobile areas from moving too much, especially in late pregnancy (or often much earlier in subsequent pregnancies). Often those who have stuck joints also have a hypermobile joint above or below (especially in the spine). Relaxin doesn’t discriminate – it affects both stiffer areas and ones that are already relaxed. Many expecting moms feel less pain in their limbs or spine than when they’re not pregnant. Those with tight hamstrings, or a stiff ankle (or knee or hips, etc) may gradually feel more ease while getting up off the floor, walking, etc.
The fabulous part about relaxin is that things stretch and move easily. Your body is absolutely designed to open up and let baby out, and relaxin is a crucial part of this beautiful design. Relaxin is a hormone created to open up your pelvis in pregnancy so your joints, muscles, and ligaments allow the passage of your baby through the birth canal.
