If you're experiencing sharp or aching pain in your shoulder—especially when lifting your arm, lying on your side, or reaching overhead—you may be dealing with shoulder bursitis. This common condition can make even simple daily movements painful. AtBe Amazing ChiropracticinMayfield West, we help patients acrossNewcastleand surrounding suburbs overcome shoulder bursitis naturally—without injections or long-term medications.
Our care focuses on reducing inflammation, restoring joint function, and correcting the postural and neurological imbalancesthat often underlie bursitis. We use a unique blend of chiropractic, posture correction, andQuantum Neurologyto help your body heal and stay pain-free.
Your shoulder contains small, fluid-filled sacs called bursae. These bursae act as cushions between bones, tendons, and muscles—reducing friction during movement. When one or more bursae become irritated and inflamed, it results in bursitis.
In the shoulder, bursitis most commonly affects the subacromial bursa, which lies between the rotator cuffand the bony tip of the shoulder blade (acromion). Inflammation here can cause pain during arm movement and even at rest.
Pain when raising the arm overhead
Shoulder pain when lying on the affected side
Dull ache or sharp stabbing pain
Swelling or warmth in the shoulder
Stiffness and limited range of motion
Bursitis symptoms often worsen with repetitive activity, poor posture, or shoulder compression (such as carrying heavy bags).
Bursitis can develop gradually over time or after a specific injury. Common contributing factors include:
Repetitive overhead motions(e.g., painting, swimming, lifting)
Poor posture,especially forward head postureor rounded shoulders
Rotator cuff dysfunctionor weakness
Trauma, such as a fall on the shoulder
Poor shouldermechanics due to spinal or nerve interference
When posture and biomechanics are off, it puts extra pressure on the bursa—leading to inflammation.
At Be Amazing Chiropractic, we go beyond simply treating the symptoms. Our goal is to correct the underlying dysfunctions that are keeping your shoulder inflamed and irritated.
Our approach includes:
Spinal and postural adjustmentsto correct misalignments that affect shoulder mechanics
Soft tissue techniques to reduce muscle tension and improve circulation
Quantum Neurologytesting to assess nerve function to the shoulder
Postural rehab exercises to support better long-term movement patterns
By addressing both the joint and nervous system function, we help you recover faster—and more completely.
Quantum Neurologyis a nerve-based system that evaluates how well your brain communicates with your shoulder and surrounding muscles. If there's a breakdown in that communication (often caused by spinal misalignment or injury), your body may compensate in a way that irritates the bursa.
We test key neurological functions related to shoulder movement. If a weakness is found, we use light therapy, gentle movement, and positioning to help reactivate and strengthenthose nerve pathways.
Benefits of Quantum Neurology for shoulder bursitis:
Improved range of motion
Reduced inflammation and pain
Better muscle activation and support
Long-term improvements in shoulder function
Poor posture—especially slouching, forward head posture,and shoulder rounding—can place excessive strain on the shoulder bursa. Over time, this leads to friction and irritation.
We help correct postural distortions through:
Posture-specific chiropractic adjustments
Targeted stretching and strengthening
Ergonomic advice for work and home
Correcting posture not only reduces the strain on your shoulders—it helps prevent bursitis from returning in the future.
