Shoulder and elbow pain
Restore your upper body mobility
Shoulder and elbow pain is most often caused from joint dysfunctions in the mid back, shoulder blades, shoulders, and hands. These imbalances lead to misalignment and compensation into the shoulders and elbows causing chronic overload, impingement, pain, and degeneration.

Align’s successful shoulder and elbow pain protocol
-
Our first objective is to deactivate the overly tight muscles locking down your rib cage, shoulders, and neck.
-
Next we restore healthy range of motion back to your mid back, shoulder blades, shoulders and wrists. This reduces pain, makes movement easier, and gives us access to the small, chronically weak stabilizer muscles in the mid back and shoulder blades that have been shut down.
-
Next we restore the ability to fire back to the small atrophied muscles in the rib cage, mid back, shoulder blades, shoulders, and forearms/hands. This creates stable joints that distribute loads evenly. This reduces pain and prepares us for strength training.
-
Once we have a mobile and stable upper body joint system, we build strength and capacity to the mid back, shoulders, elbows, and hands. This rebuilds the joints, increases resilience, and makes every day movements easy and pain free.
-
Once you achieve the desired strength levels, you enter into long term strength maintenance. For ideal maintenance, we recommend 2 days per week of strength training and 2-3 days per week of low intensity aerobic training such as walking or biking.
