Shoulder Pain & Dysfunction
Restore Strength, Stability, and Motion
Common Shoulder Conditions We Treat
Shoulder pain and dysfunction can be limiting for everyday activities. Fortunately, it is not something you have to live with. Using advanced regenerative therapies, our team can target the root causes of shoulder pain, helping reduce pain and restore mobility so patients can return to the activities they love.
Some of the most common shoulder conditions we treat include:
- Rotator cuff tears and tendinopathy
- Shoulder impingement syndrome
- Labral tears and instability
- Arthritis and degenerative joint disease
- Bursitis and chronic inflammation
- Ligament and tendon sprains or partial tears
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
Why Shoulder Pain Often Persists
One of the most frustrating aspects of shoulder pain is the fact that it often lingers, even after rest or a round of basic physical therapy. That’s because many shoulder problems are driven by underlying issues that don’t fully resolve. These issues usually include:
- Repetitive stress and overhead movement that continually irritates the joint
- Muscle imbalances and poor scapular control that place extra strain on tendons and ligaments
- Structural laxity (looseness or instability) that requires targeted intervention to heal properly
Without addressing these deeper causes, pain and dysfunction often linger or return.
CHARM’s Approach to Shoulder Pain
When treating pain in any area of the body, our approach goes beyond just treating the symptoms. Instead, we identify and address the root causes of the pain or dysfunction. To do this, we combine:
- Full-body evaluation of the spine, scapula, and shoulder mechanics
- Advanced structural diagnostics and functional testing to pinpoint the source of pain
- Collaborative care between regenerative medicine providers and rehabilitation specialists
This unique and integrated approach is designed to relieve pain, restore structural integrity, and retrain function, helping patients return to strength and movement with confidence.
Regenerative & Interventional Therapies We Use
Unlike conventional approaches that rely on medication or surgery, regenerative and interventional therapies harness the body’s natural repair mechanisms. These therapies can restore function, reduce pain, and prevent recurring injury when paired with precise, image-guided techniques.
Our regenerative treatment options include:
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): PRP uses the body’s own platelets to stimulate tissue repair, accelerate healing, and improve joint mobility.
- Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC): BMAC delivers a rich source of healing cells from your own bone marrow to promote the repair of stubborn or advanced injuries and degenerative joint disease.
- Ultrasound-Guided Injections: These guided injections ensure precise, targeted treatment delivery to the exact source of pain for better results.
- Trigger Point or Bursa Injections: These injections relieve muscle tension or inflammation in painful soft tissue “hot spots” to improve movement and comfort.
Platelet Lysate (PL): Platelet lysate can be used around inflamed joints to decrease irritation and improve tissue repair without the degenerative side effects of steroids.
Take Steps To Relieve Your Shoulder Pain With CHARM
Shoulder pain can affect anyone—whether from sports injuries, years of repetitive motion, or the wear and tear of daily life. No matter the cause, persistent pain and loss of mobility can make even simple activities feel overwhelming. That’s why choosing a care approach that looks beyond short-term fixes is so important.
With regenerative and interventional therapies, patients access treatments designed to restore strength and function naturally. This approach helps the body repair itself rather than relying on medications or invasive surgery.
