What is a chiropractic adjustment

Chiropractic Adjustment in Wilmington, NC — What to Expect

Dr. Margie Baum and Dr. Arthur Annis apply controlled force to joints that have lost proper movement — reducing nerve irritation, relieving pressure, and restoring function without medication or surgery.

Can a Chiropractor Adjust a Rotator Cuff?

Myrtle Grove Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center treats rotator cuff dysfunction and shoulder injuries using chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and targeted mobility work.

Two warning signs of a rotator cuff tear include persistent pain with overhead movements and nighttime shoulder pain that disrupts sleep — both conditions Dr. Baum and Dr. Annis evaluate during new patient assessments. Kure Beach and Carolina Beach patients regularly travel to the Myrtle Grove location for shoulder and rotator cuff evaluations. Call (910) 395-5664 to book.

Get Back to Full Function After Trauma

Auto Accident Injuries

Whiplash, back pain, neck strain, and soft tissue damage can develop even after minor-seeming accidents. Don't wait for symptoms to worsen.

How We Help You Recover

Chiropractic care restores alignment, reduces inflammation, and improves mobility. We create personalized treatment plans addressing both immediate pain and underlying issues. Acupuncture may be added to reduce tension and accelerate healing.

Why Chiropractic Adjustments

Trauma can cause spinal and joint misalignments that stress muscles and ligaments, creating pain and restricted movement. Adjustments restore proper alignment and function, reducing discomfort and improving mobility and posture.

Don't Wait, Get Evaluated

Even minor-feeling symptoms can worsen over time. Early evaluation and care after an accident reduces recovery time and helps prevent long-term complications.

Personal Injury Care
