Shoulder pain is one of the most common conditions we treat at New Heights Chiropractic & Wellness. Most cases stem from poor posture and forward shoulder rotation, which often develop from prolonged sitting, desk work, or frequent device use. Spending 8+ hours a day at a desk or constantly looking down at your phone can lead to upper back rounding, muscle imbalances, and joint stiffness.

Over time, these posture habits contribute to shoulder dysfunction, neck and upper back pain, and even injuries. When the shoulder joint is weak or misaligned, simple movements like lifting overhead or performing a chest press can cause the rotator cuff muscles to become pinched or inflamed.
