Shooting Pain in shoulders and arms

[Guest guest]

Here's another approach:

When dealing with muscles, go to the health professionals having from 500-1000

hours of hands-on training in dealing with muscular disfunctions.

Find an advanced myo/massage therapist who practices neuromuscular reeducation.

They can rebalance the muscle systems to normalcy.

Neuromuscular therapy is a hands-on, anatomically/physiology based,

results-oriented massage therapy specialty. 

It is one of the few forms of massage used in rehabilitation.

Often used in whiplash/auto injuries, fall impacts, frozen shoulders, tennis

elbow, carpel tunnel, repetitive motion syndrome, sciatic impingement, etc. with

positive results.

I was wondering....do you agree with the chiropractor who is gentle or ruff? and

do you always have any x-rays before you let them do adjustments...especially if

you know that there is something wrong in the neck area?

seen a chiropractor? Whenever my second cervical vertebrae goes

'out' I get pain in my left shoulder and in between my shoulder blades, due

to the pull on my trapezius. A chiropractic adjustment usually relieves the

pain in a matter of minutes.

 

Hope this helps,

I would say that a good chiro needs to know when it is appropriate to use a

gentle touch and when more force is needed. Personally, I hold an adjustment

better when traditional methods are used instead of that little clicky thing. 

Speak up and voice your concerns to your practitioner.

 

As far as X-rays go... that is a personal preference.  There are some that say

never to x-ray, however I am of the mind that if I am going to let them adjust

my neck, I want them to know EXACTLY what is going on in there.  There are

conditions that could be (potentially) worsened by the wrong adjustment and if

the chiro isn't aware of ALL the symptoms, they could inadvertently do more harm

than good.  I would venture on the side of caution, understanding that

sometimes, modern medicine has it's place.
