Shoulder Pain Care in Homer, Alaska
Care for shoulder discomfort with reaching, lifting, and the activities you want to return to.
Understanding your symptoms
Shoulder pain can involve muscles, tendons, joints, or symptoms referred from the neck. An evaluation helps distinguish these patterns and determine suitable care.
Your evaluation
We discuss how your symptoms began, your work and sport demands, and any injury. We assess shoulder motion, strength, and relevant neck findings. Significant injury or unexplained weakness may need further evaluation.
Care suited to your findings
Care may include targeted exercise, movement guidance, and appropriate hands-on treatment. Dry needling or shockwave therapy may be considered for selected muscle or tendon complaints after assessment. We track changes in movement and everyday function.
A question patients ask
Is every shoulder problem a rotator cuff injury?
No. Several problems can cause similar symptoms. Your examination helps determine whether a tendon, joint, neck, or another concern needs attention.
