What's the best way to get rid of shoulder pain?
The best way to combat shoulder pain is a multi-modal approach which includes:
-
Full evaluation and diagnosis. Shoulder pain can come in many forms and the BEST way to treat it depends on what is going on with the shoulder.
-
Corrective exercise to address the movement fault or joint biomechanical fault. These need to be the correct exercises based off the shoulder diagnosis, not just any exercise!
-
Hands on manual treatment. The research says it over and over. Best and lasting success rates come when proper corrective exercise is combined with Manual Treatment. Manual treatment includes, dry needling, cupping therapy, electro-dry needling, soft tissue work, mobilizations with movement just to a name a few. These techniques themselves can often take majority of your symptoms away in just the first couple of visits.
-
Correct the movement pattern; your body tries to avoid the painful movement often causing a chain reaction in the body. Once the shoulder is pain free, we need to get the shoulder, as well as the joints above and below moving correctly to prevent future pain and bulletproof the shoulder.
Why hasn’t your shoulder pain gone away yet?
-
You went to a different practitioner that wasn’t specialized in shoulders or didn’t have the time to perform the required manual treatment.
-
You simply have let your shoulder rest without treating the root cause and therefore the shoulder pain is still there.
-
You looked up strengthening or stretching videos online that may or may not have been of benefit for your specific shoulder diagnosis.
-
Or lastly, you haven’t tried anything for your shoulder pain!
