Shoulder Impingement Treatment in Newcastle, NSW
Relieve Shoulder Pain and Restore Your Range of Motion—Naturally
Are you struggling with a sharp, pinching pain in your shoulder, especially when raising your arm overhead or reaching behind your back? You may be dealing with shoulder impingement syndrome. At Be Amazing Chiropractic, we’ve helped countless individuals across Newcastle, Mayfield, and nearby suburbs regain comfortable movement and avoid surgery.
Our integrated approach combines chiropractic care, postural correction, and Quantum Neurology to address the mechanical, postural, and neurological causes of shoulder impingement—without drugs or cortisone injections.
What Is Shoulder Impingement Syndrome?
Shoulder impingement occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become pinched or compressed between the bones of the shoulder joint—specifically under the acromion (part of the shoulder blade). This compression leads to inflammation, irritation, and restricted mobility.
Over time, untreated impingement can progress to tendinitis, bursitis, or even rotator cuff tears.
Common Symptoms of Shoulder Impingement
Pain when lifting your arm above shoulder height
Discomfort reaching behind the back or head
Pain at night, especially when lying on the affected side
Weakness or reduced range of motion
Clicking or catching sensation in the shoulder
These symptoms often worsen with repetitive activity or poor posture and can interfere with work, exercise, and daily life.
What Causes Shoulder Impingement?
There are several mechanical and postural factors that can cause or contribute to impingement:
Poor posture – especially forward head posture and rounded shoulders
Spinal misalignment in the cervical or thoracic spine
Overuse or repetitive overhead motions (e.g., painting, swimming, lifting weights)
History of shoulder injury or trauma
Age-related changes in shoulder mechanics
At Be Amazing Chiropractic, we take a whole-body view to uncover and correct the root causes—not just the symptoms.
Chiropractic Care for Shoulder Impingement
Our chiropractic assessment begins with:
Postural analysis
Spinal evaluation
Range of motion testing
Functional muscle strength checks
Neurological testing via Quantum Neurology
We then tailor a care plan that may include:
Gentle adjustments to improve shoulder and spinal alignment
Posture correction strategies
Targeted exercises for rotator cuff and scapular control
Nerve-based rehabilitation to reprogram faulty motor patterns
Quantum Neurology: A Deeper Level of Care
Many shoulder impingement cases involve more than just muscle strain—they include neurological weakness or dysfunction. With Quantum Neurology, we assess how your brain communicates with the shoulder muscles and joints.
Through gentle, non-invasive techniques, we test core nerve function and work to restore optimal communication, which can:
Reduce pain and inflammation
Improve muscle coordination and joint tracking
Accelerate recovery without medications
This approach is especially helpful if traditional physical therapy hasn’t produced lasting results.
The Link Between Posture, Spine, and Shoulder Pain
Poor posture is one of the most overlooked contributors to shoulder impingement. When your head juts forward and your shoulders round, the space in your shoulder joint narrows—creating the perfect conditions for impingement.
Spinal misalignments in the cervical (neck) and thoracic (upper back) areas can:
Alter shoulder biomechanics
Disrupt nerve signals to shoulder muscles
Lead to compensatory movement patterns that cause friction
By restoring postural integrity and proper nerve function, we help relieve the cause of impingement—not just mask the symptoms.
Who We Help
We’ve worked with patients from all walks of life, including:
