Shoulder and upper back pain can affect your posture, limit your range of motion, and make everyday tasks uncomfortable. At Gray Chiropractic Injury & Wellness in Boise, ID, we take a whole-body, non-invasive approach to uncover the root causes of your pain and deliver long-term relief. Whether your discomfort stems from poor ergonomics, injury, or spinal misalignment, our experienced chiropractors are here to help.
Pain in the shoulder and upper back is often connected to muscle tension, nerve irritation, or misalignment in the cervical and thoracic spine. Common culprits include rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, tech neck, and postural strain from hours spent at a desk or on mobile devices. When these structures are out of balance, it can lead to chronic inflammation, stiffness, and even radiating pain into the arms or neck.
At our Boise clinic, chiropractic adjustments help realign the spine and shoulder joints, improving mobility and reducing inflammation. We also utilize physiotherapy techniques, soft tissue therapy, and posture correction to address muscular imbalances and encourage better movement. Our team performs a thorough assessment to determine what’s causing your pain and develops a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific lifestyle and goals.
Left untreated, upper back and shoulder pain can worsen over time, potentially leading to compensatory pain in other areas such as the lower back or neck. That’s why it’s crucial to address the problem early with comprehensive care. At Gray Chiropractic Injury & Wellness, we’re dedicated to helping you regain comfort, flexibility, and control so you can get back to doing what you love—pain-free.
