A common cause of pain with rotation in the low back is facet dysfunction. The Lumbar vertebrae is subluxed (out of alignment) which can lead to the facets (where vertebrae meets vertebrae) being in a suboptimal position. When facets are not moving properly they can cause sharp pain that comes and goes quickly and/or muscular spasms that cause dull aching pain. Chiropractic is absolutely a good fix for this issue. Great question!

Driving, or sitting in general, for long hours can cause tightness of the piriformis muscle and lead to discomfort on the outside of the glute. Rolling out the side of your hip with a tennis ball or lacrosse ball can help the muscle relax. Tightness or pain with sitting for long periods of time on the inside of the hip is more often related to the psoas muscle which can be released with massage therapy or the Cobra pose in yoga!

Yes shoulder impingements can be fixed! Distraction techniques in the shoulder can provide relief of impingement syndromes as well as regular adjustments. Physical Therapy is also a viable option before surgery is considered. An X-ray would help determine if the impingement is resulting from inflammation in the shoulder joint, tendinitis, or if it is a true impingement due to a bony overgrowth of the acromion due to arthritic change.

It can absolutely be fixed. If you were a patient at my clinic, I would have you undergo a trial of conservative care (4-6 visits) with chiropractic and physical therapy before ordering an X-ray. In certain cases, arthritic change to the acromion (the very edge of your shoulder) can impede muscle function and in that case surgery would be a viable option, followed with physical therapy!

Great question! Short answer is it depends on the origin of the pain. Long answer: If the pain is due to a recent strain of the muscles that act on the shoulder then physical therapy would be a better option, but if the pain is resulting from a lack of range of motion (i.e. frozen shoulder) inflammation begins to set in causing local pain. In the latter case, chiropractic care would be a great option to restore mobility to the shoulder. I would advise you to seek out a qualified professional for an evaluation of your shoulder.
