Shoulder Bursitis and Shoulder Arthritis

Shoulder bursitis and arthritis are painful conditions that can prevent you from going to work, enjoying your favorite hobby or even performing simple tasks like combing your hair. Balanced Health Medical is the chiropractor that NYC residents rely on for treatment of their shoulder bursitis, arthritis, and more.

What are Shoulder Bursitis and Shoulder Arthritis?

Shoulder bursitis and arthritis are common conditions. The human shoulder is a complex organization of bones, muscles, and tissues that work together to allow you to move your arm in almost every direction.

Shoulder bursitis is a condition that affects a bursa, which is a fluid-filled sac that reduces friction between tendons, muscles, and bones of a joint. The shoulder has several bursae. Symptoms of shoulder bursitis tend to come about slowly, over weeks or months. These symptoms can include pain on the outside of the shoulder that may travel down your arm and wrist. The pain may become worse when you sleep on the affected shoulder, or when you move your arm above your head.

Shoulder arthritis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the shoulder joint. Several types of arthritis affect the shoulder, including “wear and tear” osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis that attacks joints throughout the body. Symptoms of shoulder arthritis include stiffness and pain when you move your shoulder.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Shoulder Bursitis and Shoulder Arthritis

Balanced Health Medical, your choice Hell’s Kitchen chiropractor, provides the care from a chiropractor Midtown residents rely on for the accurate treatment and diagnosis of shoulder bursitis and arthritis.

Treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis to make sure it is not actually a rotator cuff injury, another type of shoulder problem. Our chiropractor performs an evaluation of the shoulder area and may order x-rays or other tests. Our Midtown chiropractor will then develop a comprehensive treatment plan that may include physical therapy.

Chiropractic treatment for shoulder bursitis and arthritis include joint mobilization to keep the shoulder moving freely, massage and acupuncture. Physical therapy from your Manhattan chiropractor can help strengthen the muscles of the shoulder joint to help you overcome the stiffness and pain of shoulder bursitis and arthritis.
