"Thought it was just a frozen shoulder, but pain radiates to the arm - Can I recover with SART correction in Ingye-dong, Suwon?"
Patient Testimonial (Verified Review)
"At first, it was just a dull ache, but my frozen shoulder symptoms got worse, and the pain radiated all the way from my shoulder down to my arm, causing severe numbness. After receiving Chuna manual therapy (Chuna) from the doctor here, the pain has really subsided significantly~"
💡 Bodyall 30-Second Summary
1. Numbness radiating from the shoulder to the arm is likely radiating pain caused by a combination of cervical nerve compression and thoracic displacement, rather than simple arthritis.
2. Treating only the shoulder joint cannot fundamentally resolve nerve problems originating from the spine.
3. Bodyall SART (Spinal Alignment Restoration Therapy) corrects the spine's central axis, opening the nerve pathway to the shoulder to eliminate pain.
1. Biomechanical Misunderstandings of Frozen Shoulder and Radiating Pain
When many people experience worsening shoulder pain and arm numbness, they often assume it is simply 'frozen shoulder' (adhesive capsulitis) or a 'rotator cuff tear.' In reality, displacement of the cervical spine often maximizes tension in the muscles around the shoulder, compressing nerves and radiating pain. Spinal twisting changes the position of the scapula, physically limiting the range of motion of the shoulder joint.
2. Why is shoulder-only treatment limited?
Treating only shoulder inflammation may provide temporary pain relief, but the structural causes in the spine and pelvis that make the shoulder slump remain. Bodyall uses SART (Spinal Alignment Restoration Therapy) to simultaneously correct misalignments in the spine and pelvis, normalizing the nerve and blood vessel pathways leading to the shoulder.
3. Checklist: Spinal Imbalance Associated with Shoulder Conditions
- Severe pain and accompanying numbness when lifting your arm above your head.
- Dull, aching pain not only around the shoulder but also deep inside the shoulder blade.
- One shoulder appearing noticeably lower or slumped forward.
