Shoulder Pain

Nick B.

Here’s my “story”. My left shoulder was dislocated in a fall at work in 1992. I also have issues at C4 and C5 in the cervical spine, perhaps from the same fall. I have been through four separated sessions of physical therapy in the past twelve years. MRI’s showed damage internally, but not severe enough to make me opt for surgery. My shoulder popped and grinded and generally hurt nearly every day. I told numerous doctors AND therapists that my shoulder did not feel like it was in place. Everyone was compassionate, but none really HEARD what I was saying. None until Dr. Allen that is.

When I first saw Dr. Allen, he x-rayed my shoulder and told me that it was out of place! That was both vindication that I was not imagining the pain, but also vindicated in what I had been telling numerous professionals for years! Dr. Allen started me on DIFFERENT types of treatments that no one previous had ever attempted. Previously, everyone wanted to heat it or ice it……made it feel better temporarily but did NOTHING to fix the real issue that the joint was out of place!

Within the first 10 days, I could TELL He was making a difference! When He started adjusting my shoulder the first few times, I remember the shocked look on his face concerning both the extra movement and the noise coming out of my shoulder area. That was NORMAL for me and had been for years!

I’m no longer a competitive athlete, all I really desired was full range of motion WITHOUT pain. Loss of strength was just a given in my mind, I’d been compensating for over a decade. I have now been seeing Dr Allen for 3 months. My shoulder has improved, it doesn’t hurt as much as it did, it doesn’t pop and grind as much as it did, and my posture has improved significantly with his assistance. Additionally, the exercises that he has assisted me with have been different and MORE productive than any previous professional has tried. He also provides more ONE on ONE assistance than I have ever previously experienced.

ll I can say is this. If you get the impression that I am a fan of Clear Purpose Chiropractic, well I am! I have been treated professionally and with great courtesy during every single visit.

I look FORWARD to getting you early to see you guys! THANKS Dr. Allen for all your caring and professional treatment with me!

Sincerely,
Nick

I first came to Clear Purpose due to a shoulder injury I received in an automobile accident. When my initial X-rays were taken, I was notified that my cervical spine was tilted forward, that I had been walking around slumped forward for years!

Through treatment, not only has my shoulder pain been relieved, but my cervical spine has now been rotated to a more normal position. What a difference this has made in my life- I no longer get the frequent headaches and neck pain I had for years. I no longer walk with a slump in my neck.

I will always be thankful for Dr. Shani’s time and his very caring touch. I realize that keeping my spinal cord in proper alignment is crucial to my overall well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Shani and Clear Purpose Chiropractic. Again, thanks for properly aligning me.

Sincerely,
Katherine
