Chiropractic Treatment for Referred Shoulder Pain!
Sometimes shoulder pain can be referred from the neck (C5/C6 facet joints). Chiropractic "adjustments" have been used to treat this pain, however there are no studies to show whether this works or not.
The aim of this study is to determine if a series of "treatments" with a Mechanically Assisted Instrument (M.A.I.) will help referred shoulder pain or not.
Patients will be randomized into two groups, one will receive a series of treatments with the MAI with an experienced Chiropractor, the other will receive placebo treatments. All treatments are free.
If you are interested in participating in this trial please phone (02) 9553 9944 to make an appointment.
The Activator is a spring loaded device that is activated by compressing a handle on the shank of the instrument. It delivers a force to a rubber attachment which is connected to the end of a stylus. It is placed on the skin directly over an articulation (joint) that is to be adjusted (mobilised).
