Manual treatment will relax the tension in your superficial shoulder muscles and deep trigger points to improve your body balance.
Motion and manipulation will improve the range of motion of your shoulder joints. It also improves elasticity while relieving soft tissue adhesions and stiffness.

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 supports the bruised area to prevent further injuries.
We can also prescribe poultices to help relieve your pain.
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.

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.
