Shoulder Pain Relief Tips

Tips For Shoulder Pain Relief

6/22/2017

Early Chinese physicians discovered there is an energy network traversing just below the surface of the skin that communicates from the exterior to the internal organs and structures via over 1,000 "Acupoints" on the body.

This powerful energy works in harmony with the body's circulatory, nervous, muscular, digestive, genitourinary and all other systems of the body.

When this vital energy becomes blocked or weakened, an effect in a body system or anatomic location becomes evident. Stimulation of one or a combination of key "Acupoints" on the body may restore harmony to the affected area. This is why many treatments that only use structural techniques may not help you overcome pain.

Here are some points we use in our Beverly Hills clinic for shoulder pain that you can try at home.

ST11: Tian Zong (Heavenly Gathering)

GB21: Jian Jing (Shoulder Well)

ST12: Quepen (EmptyBasin)

BL58: Fei Yang (Soaring Upwards)

Some programs will include laser and other non-invasive tools. I’ve included some images to help you locate the points.

SI 11: Supports the entire shoulder. SI 11 is great because it also relaxes the subscapularis muscle underneath the scapula (shoulder blade).
GB 21: Opens the shoulder and clears energy along the shoulder meridian.
ST 12: Did you know that ST12 is the crossing point for many meridians? This single point effectively supports the meridians through the shoulder.
BL 58: This is a great point to help relax your entire back.

For more difficult cases, a meridian analysis is recommended to uncover the root cause of a shoulder problem. See image for a sample graph.

To your continued healing!

Dr. Aristotle understands the difficulties patients go through when dealing with a personal health challenge. In 2006, an event occurred that turned his life upside down and put his years of clinical experience in wellness healthcare to the ultimate test. Over a short period, the muscles in Aristotle’s body unexpectedly became paralyzed with only the ability to slightly move his hands at the wrists and blink his eyes.

Aristotle ended up in an intensive care unit (ICU), followed by a 72-day stay in a local hospital. He was told he may never walk again. Throughout the year, his healing journey continued while confined to an electric wheelchair and requiring around-the-clock care.

With help and determination, Aristotle combined modalities from Functional Medicine, Eastern Medicine and unique techniques in Chiropractic and Tui Na. This resulted in the ability to rebuild his body mind and spirit, which was the foundation to his miraculous recovery including the ability to walk again.

Aristotle then wrote the book, Change the Way You Heal: 7 Steps To Highly Effective Healing. No matter how big or small your health problem, this inspirational book shows you how to maximize your healing abilities and resources using the same methods he implemented in his own recovery.
