SHOULDER PAIN TREATMENT BUNDABERG

The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body, and also one of the most complex. Whether it’s pain lifting your arm, discomfort while sleeping, or stiffness with movement, shoulder issues can make everyday activities feel frustrating or even impossible.

At Naturally Chiropractic Bundaberg, we provide gentle, personalised care to help restore function, reduce tension, and address the underlying causes of shoulder pain. We take the time to assess not just the shoulder itself, but also the spine, posture, and nervous system to provide holistic care that lasts.

Common Causes of Shoulder Pain

  • Rotator cuff strain or irritation

  • Shoulder impingement syndrome

  • Bursitis or tendonitis

  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)

  • Shoulder instability or weakness

  • Referred pain from the neck or upper back

  • Postural stress from desk work, nursing, or lifting

For many individuals, shoulder pain develops gradually over time due to repetitive stress or postural habits. In other cases, pain may arise suddenly following an injury or strain.

Why May Shoulder Pain Happen?

Shoulder pain can develop gradually or suddenly, and often involves more than one contributing factor:

  • Repetitive movements or overuse

  • Poor posture or rounded shoulders

  • Spinal misalignments affecting nerve communication

  • Past injuries or trauma

  • Muscular imbalance or weakness

  • Compensation from issues elsewhere in the body

  • Stress and nervous system imbalance

How Chiropractic Care May Help Your Shoulder Pain

Dr Kayley Coles takes a full-body approach to shoulder concerns. By assessing the spine, shoulder joint, posture, and muscle patterns, we create a tailored care plan that may include manual hands-on adjustments, Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT), cranial work, and Activator chiropractic techniques to help restore movement and function.

Our goal is to address the root cause of your discomfort and support your body’s natural healing process, so you can get back to doing what you love, pain-free.

Whether you're dealing with a sports injury, postural tension, or persistent shoulder discomfort, we’re here to help. With holistic care and a nervous system-based approach, we aim to support lasting results, naturally.
