How common is shoulder pain?

Most people will experience mild shoulder pain at some point during their lives. However, for other patients, shoulder pain is chronic and/or more severe. In cases where shoulder pain is more bothersome and/or doesn’t resolve on its own after a few days, professional treatment may be required.

Why does shoulder pain occur?

Patients may experience shoulder pain for several different reasons. In some cases, shoulder pain occurs because of a problem with a nearby ligament, tendon, or muscle. In other cases, the pain comes from the shoulder joint itself. When shoulder pain stems from the joint, it will get worse when the patient moves the arm or shoulder.
Some of the most common causes of shoulder pain include arthritis and bursitis. Both of these conditions cause swelling in the shoulder joint. Other possible causes of shoulder pain include dislocation and injury.

How does Innovative Medical Center treat shoulder pain?

When a patient comes in with a complaint of shoulder pain, the doctors at Innovative Medical Center begin by examining the patient thoroughly to determine the cause of the pain. In many cases, the doctor will order an X-ray to confirm or rule out certain issues.

After the doctor has identified the cause of the pain, he will develop a treatment plan designed to alleviate the patient’s pain, improve function in the shoulder, and reduce the likelihood of future injuries. Our doctors treat the whole patient, as opposed to conventional approaches that merely treat symptoms.
• We provide complete medical care and offer effective, noninvasive solutions to your pain, weakness, numbness, and loss of function.
• Your customized care plan will involve a range of treatments selected to meet your particular health needs.
• You’ll experience natural modes of treatment, focusing on overall wellness and injury prevention.
• We will collaborate with you to develop a set of goals to restore your health and ability to function. We know that a shoulder injury can be an obstacle to regular daily functioning, and we will aim to heal your injury and restore your life as quickly as possible.
• You’ll discover natural, effective care for your shoulder injury without resorting to surgery or medications.

How effective is treatment for shoulder pain?

Many cases of shoulder pain will resolve completely with the right treatment. Over time, the issue causing the shoulder pain heals, and the treatment strengthens the shoulder to prevent the condition from recurring. In cases where shoulder pain is related to a chronic condition like arthritis, a cure may not be possible. However, by participating in regular treatment sessions, patients can maintain good function in the shoulder, build strength, and minimize the symptoms.

Great staff! Love the results. Went in for my knee, and after the first injection, I started walking without a limp and with no pain.

I have been going here for 10 years. Dr roland helped my daughter have a higher quality of life. Every physical activity she does is due to him seeing what her drs refused to see. She had a seizure due to medication she was taking for chronic constipation. Dr Roland noticed she was off a bit and offered to take a look at her back. She was completely out of alignment. He helped her not have the struggles and she now is able to have full range of movement. The office staff is beyond friendly I have always felt welcome here.

I have had an amazing experience with the staff at IMC. I did stem cell replacement with our non verbal severely autistic son and the results were amazing for our family. It was a joy to go through this journey with them and I continue to take my children there and they have helped more then some MD's with treatments. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

What can I say about IMC? Let me start off by saying if every medical office cared about their patients the way these people do, we would have no need for doctors! They are about healing you. It’s as if they’re treating their own mother.  The love and concern that they have for their patients is unbelievable! I went in there barely able to move.  It took me literally about 5 minutes to get out of a chair, with the help of cane.   I cannot believe how far I’ve come! Before my treatment was over I was actually able to take my daughter to an amusement park where I was on my feet walking all day! That ment so much to me! To be able to give my daughter something she deserves.  Instead of being cooped up in the house because her dad was unable to leave the house because he was in too much pain.  They not only brought hope back into my life.   But they made it possible for my daughter to experience life, as she should.  I’d give these people the world if I could! Because that’s what they gave to my daughter! Thank you IMC!
