J-CLINIC for treatment of shoulder muscle sprain in Bangkok
Treating shoulder pain is one of our clinic’s strengths. In this post, we’ll talk about shoulder muscle sprain.
What is muscle sprain?
Muscle sprain happens when you slam or forcibly stretch your muscle or tendon. Your injury could range from light overstretching to complete tearing of the muscle tissue. Depending on how severe your injury is, you could experience pain and swelling. You may also be unable to use the injured muscle.
Common causes of shoulder muscle sprains
Shoulder muscle sprains are commonly caused by
- lifting heavy objects
- sudden and violent movement of the shoulder
- contact sports such as martial arts and rugby, in which the shoulder is hit
Common symptoms of shoulder muscle sprains
When you have a shoulder muscle sprain, you will experience pain, such as when changing clothes or scratching your back.
Our treatments for muscle sprains
Manual treatment
Manual treatment will relax the tension in your superficial shoulder muscles and deep trigger points to improve your body balance.
Motion and manipulation
Motion and manipulation will improve the range of motion of your shoulder joints. It also improves elasticity while relieving soft tissue adhesions and stiffness.
Ultrasound and high voltage therapy
Ultrasound and high voltage therapy promotes cellular repair. It speeds up healing and relieves pain
Acupuncture
Acupuncture improves blood flow to the stiff muscle tissue that is causing you pain and limiting your range of motion. The improved blood flow will flush out the pain-producing substances collecting in the stiff areas. It also relieves tension in joints and muscle ligaments, giving you better a range of motion and relief from pain.
Taping therapy
Taping supports the bruised area to prevent further injuries.
Poultice
We can also prescribe poultices to help relieve your pain.
Training and self-care guidance
After the pain goes down, we will teach you exercises that you can do at home and self-care tips to prevent your injury from recurring.
Strengthening the inner shoulder muscles (rotator cuff) using a TheraBand.
Relaxing the muscles around the shoulder with a massage ball. Your muscle flexibility is reduced after a sprain. To prevent spraining your muscles again, it’s important to do self-care exercises at home once your symptoms have improved.
TheraBands and massage balls are available at our clinic.
