Shoulder pain is not always just a shoulder problem
Sometimes the shoulder is where you feel the pain, but not the only place the problem is coming from.
The way your neck, upper back, posture, movement patterns, or surrounding muscles are working can all play a role in how the shoulder feels and functions.
That is one reason shoulder pain can be frustrating. If you only focus on the spot that hurts, it is easy to miss the bigger picture.
At Rebound SportsMed, we take the time to look at what may be contributing to the problem so care can be based on more than the pain alone.
