Shoulder Pain Relief & Chiropractic Care
Delu Chiropractic in Lodi, CA

Persistent shoulder pain, stiffness, and weakness can turn everyday movements—like reaching overhead, lifting groceries, or finding a comfortable sleeping position—into a painful struggle. At Delu Chiropractic, located in Lodi, CA, and serving patients across Stockton and San Joaquin County, Dr. Kenneth Delu specializes in non-invasive, drug-free chiropractic care to treat the underlying source of shoulder dysfunction and restore full, pain-free mobility.

 

Common Causes of Shoulder Pain We Treat

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the human body, relying on a complex network of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves connected directly to the cervical and upper thoracic spine. Misalignments or injuries anywhere along this chain can lead to severe pain and joint instability.

  • Rotator Cuff Strains & Tears: Wear, tear, or sudden trauma to the tendons supporting the shoulder joint, causing deep, dull aching and weakness when lifting the arm.

  • Shoulder Impingement & Bursitis: Inflammation of the fluid-filled bursa sac or tendons pinching against the shoulder blade during movement.

  • Referred Pain from the Neck (Cervical Radiculopathy): Compressed nerves in the cervical spine radiating sharp pain, tingling, or numbness directly into the shoulder and upper arm.

  • Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis): Severe stiffness, reduced range of motion, and persistent pain caused by capsule tightening around the glenohumeral joint.

  • Postural Strain & Rounded Shoulders: Chronic slouching and desk work pulling the scapula out of alignment, leading to muscle spasms and chronic tension across the upper back and shoulders.

 

Our Comprehensive Approach to Shoulder Relief

We take a whole-person approach that addresses both the shoulder joint itself and its spinal connections:

  • Spinal & Extremity Adjustments: Precision realignment of the cervical spine, upper back, clavicle, and shoulder joint to relieve nerve pressure and restore proper biomechanics.

  • Targeted Physiotherapy Modalities: Therapeutic techniques to reduce local inflammation, break down painful muscle knots, and speed soft tissue healing.

  • Corrective Exercises & Scapular Stabilization: Customized strengthening and mobility drills to stabilize the rotator cuff and prevent recurring impingement.
