Shockwave Therapy Success: A Mother's Path to Shoulder Pain Relief

Shockwave IllustrationBetween managing three young kids and keeping up with daily tasks, one local mom found herself battling nagging shoulder pain that just wouldn’t go away. She tried injections and physical therapy, which gave her temporary relief—but the discomfort always returned.

Eventually, she contacted Dr. Brotherton at AlignOK Chiropractic Wellness, seeking a lasting solution, not a quick fix.

The Challenge of Everyday Injuries

You don’t have to be an athlete to suffer from chronic pain. For this mother, the repetitive lifting, carrying, and bending involved in caring for her children had taken a toll. “She basically just injured her shoulder doing stuff around the house, dealing with her three young kids,” said Dr. Brotherton.

While injections and therapy helped take the edge off, they never fully solved the problem. This mom needed more than just a bandage approach—she needed help that fit into her busy lifestyle.

Shockwave Therapy Made Simple

After a detailed evaluation, Dr. Brotherton recommended shockwave therapy combined with chiropractic care. This non-invasive approach works by sending acoustic waves into the injured tissue, stimulating blood flow, softening scar tissue, and triggering the body’s natural repair mechanisms—all without requiring downtime. What parent has time for that?

“After the first treatment, she noticed a tremendous reduction in the amount of pain by probably 50% in the shoulder,” Dr. Brotherton shares. By the fourth session, she reported feeling “really pretty good.” This was a significant improvement that allowed her to return to normal activities with her family.

Relief Without Putting Life on Hold

For busy parents, one of the best benefits of shockwave therapy is its convenience. Unlike surgery or prolonged rest, this treatment allows patients to stay active during the process. Many, like this mom, experience noticeable relief early on without the need for extended time away from daily responsibilities.
