yes, regular massages can help with chronic shoulder pain. A medical massage or a Swedish massage on the shoulder will help with ease the pain and promote circulation in the muscles.
Massage can help with muscle tightness surrounding the shoulder. Reduction of the muscle tightness may temporarily decrease pain levels. However, I would recommend having your shoulder evaluated to see what is causing the chronic pain. You may need chiropractic adjustments, other soft tissue modalities, or rehab exercises to get rid of your pain.

Yes, it is a possibility that massage would help relieve your shoulder pain. However, it all depends on the CAUSE of your pain. You may also have vertebrae in your neck, or ribs, or shoulder blades, that need the attention of a Chiropractor. Find the reason behind the issue.
