What to expect at a shoulder pain visit in Downers Grove
Shoulder pain can start in the joint itself, the muscles and tendons around it, or the neck and upper back. The first step is finding out which. Here is how a visit with Dr. Langgle usually goes.
- We talk through when the shoulder pain started, what makes it worse, your health history and your goals.
- Dr. Langgle examines the shoulder and the areas around it: posture analysis, range of motion testing, and orthopedic and neurological tests. X-rays are used only if medically necessary.
- He explains what the exam found and the treatment he recommends for your shoulder.
- If it is appropriate, your first treatment happens the same day.
How many visits you need depends on your condition, your overall health and your goals, and your doctor will talk through a plan with you. A first visit usually takes 45 to 60 minutes. Call (630) 729-7024 to book.
Shoulder Pain Chiropractor in Downers Grove, IL
Common shoulder problems we see include frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries and shoulder impingement from throwing and overhead sports, rotator cuff tendonitis, shoulder pain after a car accident, and rounded shoulders from desk work and forward head posture.
Shoulder and neck pain often show up together, and our neck care includes soft tissue work to release tension in the neck and shoulder muscles. That is why the exam can include posture analysis and spinal palpation along with range of motion testing of the shoulder.

Can a chiropractor help with shoulder pain?
Chiropractic care is not only for the spine. Extremity adjustments apply controlled force to joints such as the shoulder to restore proper alignment and function. Dr. Langgle examines your shoulder first and recommends care that matches what the exam finds.

Our sports medicine care covers throwing injuries such as rotator cuff injuries and shoulder impingement. PulseWave therapy is also used for rotator cuff tendonitis and shoulder pain, and extremity adjustments are used for shoulder pain and frozen shoulder.
Can shoulder pain come from posture or a car accident?
Rounded shoulders and forward head posture from desk work are common posture issues we see, and shoulder pain is one of the common injuries after a car accident. See our posture and auto accident recovery pages for how that care works.
What happens at a first shoulder pain visit?
A consultation about your health history, symptoms and goals, then an exam that can include posture analysis, range of motion testing and orthopedic and neurological tests. X-rays are used only if medically necessary. A first visit usually takes 45 to 60 minutes.
