Shoulders are involved in most of the movements your body makes all day long. For this reason injury can be caused due to overuse. If you have experienced or are currently suffering from shoulder pain make an appointment at your choice of chiropractic offices Manhattan NY.

Most people do not have a good understanding of the physical make up of the shoulder. Your shoulder is comprised of a ball and socket joint that includes these three main bones, the upper arm bone, the collar bone and the shoulder blade. The hip is also a ball and socket joint. This type of joint allows for circular movement in these areas.

The shoulders are held together with a combination of tendons, muscles and ligaments. Of all the joints in the body, the shoulder is the one with the biggest range of motion. This amazing range can make the area vulnerable to damage due to what may be considered normal use.

There are many sources of shoulder injury. Overuse injuries may be the result of an occupational hazard that involves repetitive motions. Golfers commonly suffer from this type of injury. Osteoarthritis is another source of shoulder pain which is usually at its worst in the morning. Both these and many other shoulder injuries can be helped with chiropractic care.

The many soft tissues surrounding shoulder bones can also sustain injury, which may be as bad or worse than a bone injury. An injury may be the result of an acute event or a chronic condition. In either case, regular care from a chiropractor will provide relief and help manage the pain.

If you are experiencing shoulder pain it needs to be evaluated to determine the source and the care. Shoulders are considered a referral site where the real source of pain may be indicative of other, more serious health issues. For these reasons, delaying care is not advised. There are several chiropractors in Manhattan who can provide the needed care.
