I have been visiting a chiropractor for many years on and off for pain relief of my shoulder. The manipulation works and keeps everything working really well, but when I start to get my pains back, I re-visit for more treatment.

It works out to be about twice a year that I visit, and its more for maintenance treatment. Going there has definitely reduced my dependency on strong pain killers.

Just thought I'd mention it, in case anyone was considering it.

I haven't had it, my doctor normally sends to for physio treatment. What is the difference between physio and chiropractic treatment?

The therapies have a lot in common, chiropractors tend to use their hands to manipulate joints. Physios use mobilisation techniques and exercise.

Both treat joints and musculoskeletal-skeletal problems.

Can chiropractic treatment, treat any type of shoulder pain? or just specific problems, like frozen shoulder?
