Dr. Shelton can Help YOU.
Many people describe upper back and shoulder pain as “where they keep their stress,” and while stress can increase muscle tension, it is rarely the only cause. In most cases, discomfort in this area is related to how the upper back and shoulders handle daily demands such as sitting, working, lifting, and repetitive movement. Chiropractic care focuses on improving function and movement so these areas are better supported throughout the day, rather than simply treating tension alone.
There are Many Reasons
that you maybe experiencing UPPER BACK and SHOULDER PAIN. Upper back and shoulder pain can develop for many reasons, often involving a combination of daily habits and physical demands. Common contributors include prolonged computer use with poor ergonomics, chronic slouching or forward-rounded posture, sleeping positions that strain the upper spine, repetitive shoulder use, previous accidents/injuries and relying on passive relief methods such as frequent heating pad use without addressing underlying movement issues. Over time, these factors can place excess stress on the thoracic spine and shoulders, leading to persistent discomfort rather than isolated episodes of pain.
Chiropractic care at Global Chiropractic Plano Frisco can help by addressing how the upper back and shoulders move and function during everyday activities. Dr. Shelton focuses on improving thoracic spine mobility, reducing mechanical strain, and correcting movement patterns that contribute to ongoing stress in the upper back and shoulder region. By improving function rather than masking symptoms, Chiropractic care helps reduce pain and supports better non -pain way of life!
Prolonged Sitting at a Desk
Poor computer ergonomics can place excessive strain on the upper back and shoulders by limiting natural mid-back movement and increasing muscle workload.
Using Heat instead of Ice
Chronic heat use can increase inflammation, reduce muscle responsiveness, and mask underlying movement or joint issues rather than addressing the cause.
Sleeping on Your Stomach
Sleeping on your stomach places the spine in a rotated and extended position for long periods of time. This posture increases stress through the upper back, shoulders, and rib cage, often contributing to stiffness and upper back pain upon waking.
Chronic Poor Posture
Over time, slouched or rounded postures reduce normal movement, increase muscle fatigue, and make the upper back more vulnerable to ongoing discomfort.
