Rehabilitation - Impulse Chiropractic

Last week my left shoulder had a bit of an unfortunate mishap and my AC joint (if you follow your collar bone out toward your shoulder until you get to a pointy joint - it's this one) was causing me a lot of pain. I don't usually have many aches and pains, but with quite a lot of work and an ever increasing work out routine, I will not be surprised when things like this pop up.  I saw Chiropractor Aaron after a few nights of it effecting my sleep and not being able to reach anything above shoulder height and he sorted it out. The first treatment hurt so much I could have bit him and really I only saw a little improvement after a day or two. The second treatment, however, helped immediately and I made it through my next workout pain free. This is often the way of rehab and exactly why I always encourage people to do a few treatments and give a little time before assuming treatment isn't working. I am bruised up but feeling 85% better (and hoping to clear out the rest with continued work with Aaron this week).
