The shoulder joint is described as a "ball-and-socket" joint. The arm or humerus bone sits in a shallow groove. This joint space can easily be interupped by a misalignment, muscle imbalance or trauma. If a person injurs the shoulder joint and doesn't have it corrected, there is a possibility of chronic pain developing. Spinal misalignments can also cause shoulder pain and muscular imbalances.
Chiropractors address these issues by evaluating each bone and muscle within the joint and determining the cause of the problem. The cause is then treated by a combination of muscle work and chiropractic adjustments. This treatment will initate the healing process and begin the road the recovery.
