Shoulder pain can happen for many reasons. Maybe you lift a suitcase, play sports like tennis, volleyball, or golf, or even just reach for something in a pantry. Each muscle in your shoulder needs energy from your brain to work right. If one muscle loses energy, it can throw off the whole shoulder’s movement. This can start with a small pain and, if not treated, can lead to bigger problems like inflammation, tearing, or breaking in the shoulder.

For example, you might be playing basketball and get bumped, which can turn off energy to a muscle. Or you might reach back in the car for something and feel a tweak. Over time, if not fixed, these small issues can lead to more serious injuries.

At the Nerve Health Institute, we start by checking the energy flow from your brain to your shoulder muscles. We use advanced methods to make sure each muscle gets the right amount of energy. We don’t just focus on the shoulder; we look at your entire body to find any other areas that might be affecting your shoulder. Sometimes a nerve problem in your foot can affect your shoulder. We make sure to check all 88 major nerves in your body to find and fix any energy deficits.

When we restore the energy flow, many people find their shoulder pain goes away. By fixing the problem early, it’s usually easy to resolve and doesn’t take long. Even if the shoulder problem is severe, with surgeries or hardware, we can help. We’ve seen many patients recover fully by addressing the root cause of their shoulder pain.

In conclusion, if you feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, there’s help available. Before you consider surgeries, injections, or medications, come see us at the Nerve Health Institute. We focus on finding and fixing the real cause of your shoulder pain, helping you feel better and avoid more serious problems. I'm Dr. Chris Cormier. Come on in and let us help you.
