Chiropractic For Shoulder Pain in Lincoln?

You don’t realize how often you use your shoulder—until it hurts to move it. From lifting a bag to reaching overhead or even turning in your sleep, shoulder pain can limit your day in ways you didn’t expect. Fortunately, Heiss Chiropractic in Lincoln offers safe, non-invasive care that targets the source of the issue and restores natural mobility—without relying on medications or surgery.

One of the most common stories we hear from patients is: “I just woke up one day and my shoulder hurt—and it hasn’t felt the same since.” In many cases, people can’t pinpoint a specific injury. That’s because shoulder pain often develops over time due to repetitive stress, poor posture, or underlying misalignment.

Common causes include:

• Repetitive movements or overuse

• Poor sleeping posture

• Traumatic injuries (like car accidents or sports impacts)

• Tight muscles in the neck and upper back

• Arthritis or joint inflammation

• Misalignment in the spinal column

When vertebrae become misaligned, they can irritate surrounding nerves—leading to pain that radiates into the shoulder. The longer this goes uncorrected, the more likely it is to develop into chronic pain, reduced mobility, or even nerve damage.

If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s time to schedule a consultation with Heiss Chiropractic:

• Pain that comes and goes or gets worse by the end of the day

• Difficulty raising your arm overhead

• Pain when lifting, reaching, or carrying items

• Clicking, popping, or snapping in the shoulder

• Swelling or bruising

• Shoulder pain lasting longer than a week

These signs indicate that your body is compensating for something deeper—and waiting could allow the problem to worsen.

At your first visit, Dr. Heiss will conduct a detailed evaluation to locate the source of your shoulder pain. Every patient is different, so we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:

• Gentle spinal adjustments to restore alignment

• Muscle and soft tissue therapy to relieve tension

• Guidance on posture, ergonomics, and daily movement

• Non-invasive techniques that promote long-term healing

Our goal is to restore your body’s natural balance, reduce inflammation, and relieve nerve pressure—so you can move freely again without pain.

Don’t let shoulder pain continue to limit your lifestyle or sleep. Whether it’s a new ache or a long-term issue, we’re here to help you return to full strength—safely and naturally.
