The shoulder joint performs many different movements and functions. The main joint is called the glenohumeral joint; it is connected by ligaments and a group of muscles known as the rotator cuff. Problems with the rotator cuff are common causes of shoulder pain and disability. Shoulder problems can also be caused by trauma with sports injuries, wear and tear and arthritic changes or the joint. The treatment may consist of correcting muscle imbalance, restoring proper mobility and correcting misalignments of the neck. Electrotherapy modalities and therapeutic ultrasound may be used in the therapy process. It is important to do exercise advised by your chiropractor in order for a full and fast recovery. Common conditions of the shoulder include frozen shoulder and rotator cuff sprains and strains.
