Shoulder pain—whether from sports injuries, overuse, or conditions like frozen shoulder—can be frustrating and limit your ability to move freely. In Chinese medicine, pain and stiffness in the shoulder are often seen as signs of blocked energy and blood flow. This blockage can result from inflammation, muscle tension, or injury, and over time it can restrict movement and cause ongoing discomfort.
At Golden Crane Acupuncture, we use acupuncture and Chinese herbs to help restore proper circulation, reduce inflammation, and release tight muscles and tissues around the shoulder. Whether you’re dealing with impingement from repetitive motion or the deep stiffness of frozen shoulder, treatment is tailored to your unique needs. Acupuncture points are selected to ease pain and improve mobility, helping you return to daily activities with more comfort and ease.
Shoulder Pain
I was looking for relief from excruciating pain, which was a result of an AC joint, glenohumeral joint osteoarthritis and calcific tendonitis in my right shoulder. I had heard of so many positive results from acupuncture, I decided that this would be the best approach for me, taking into consideration my lifestyle and well-being.
Collin is simply brilliant. Not only is he incredible at what he does, as an acupuncturist and an expert in Chinese Medicine, but he is a fantastic person who makes it his mission to help you from the moment you meet him.
I felt at ease and comfortable from the first treatment on, and quite frankly. Never in the medical field had I come across such a focused, knowledgeable, patient and personable individual.
Collin integrates Traditional Chinese Medicine and nutrition to treat his patients holistically, and not just zero in on specific symptoms. He wants you to be truly healthy, not just free from pain/illness. He will answer every question you have, and his patience never ceases to amaze me.
Also…he is always fun to talk to, which makes things a lot easier.
Need I say more?!
