Understanding Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is a common complaint that can result from various factors, including injury, overuse, and underlying medical conditions.
According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, shoulder pain affects approximately 18-26% of adults in the United States.
Most Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
Rotator Cuff Injuries: Tears or strains in the rotator cuff muscles and tendons are a frequent source of shoulder pain, especially among athletes and individuals who engage in repetitive overhead activities.
Shoulder Impingement Syndrome: This condition occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become pinched or compressed between the bones of the shoulder, leading to inflammation and pain.
Osteoarthritis: Degenerative changes in the shoulder joint can cause pain, stiffness, and limited mobility, particularly in older adults.

I highly recommend Balance for all your health and longevity goals. I had damaged muscle from a trauma injury that had not healed in three years and through Shockwave and Balance’s comprehensive treatment approach, healed the damaged region. They are extremely customized in their care and it is always a wonderful overall experience.
I was recommended to Balance medical from a local friend here in Colorado as we are visiting from Costa Rica. It was suggested that it may help to have a session in the hyperbaric chamber to help adjust to the altitude.
The entire experience was educational and professional with both Dr Jesi and her husband Dr Jason explaining the process step by step and not only the benefits of what to expect but how your body functions and why this process would help me to climatize to the altitude.
A great experience and can say it really worked for me I was experiencing a slight headache and just kind of worn out. After the one-hour session I was revitalized and had renewed energy and my headache was gone. I have been hiking and climbing since here in the mountains and feel great.
Thank you very much Dr. Jesi and Dr. Jason for your help and professionalism what a great team!
I recently had Dr Jess treat my plantar fasciitis with shock wave therapy. The results are amazing! I had 4-5 treatments about 2 weeks apart. The results are not immediate, but within a few days I had so much relief and after a few treatments the difference is incredible! SO worth it!
10 years ago I broke my leg in two places and had 14 pins, two plates and bone graphed into my tib/fib/ankle, and was told I would deal with arthritis for the rest of my life. Being extremely active in sports, weight lifting, and with my profession I found that movement helped but was almost counter intuitive. I lost nearly 75% range of motion in the joint and became limited in certain abilities in addition to consistent discomfort. I'm now 4 months out from receiving PRP and cellular therapy from Jason, and i have seen a significant improvement in my ability to not only move the joint with gained ROM, but pain and discomfort is nearly non existent after strenuous activities. I used to wake up and find it hard to take the first few steps, which is no longer an issue. I highly recommend considering this treatment to anyone looking to either gain an advantage on maintaining a active lifestyle or simply live day to day with less pain.

Innovative Treatments for Shoulder Pain
Shockwave Therapy
Clinical studies have shown that shockwave therapy can effectively treat various shoulder conditions, including rotator cuff tendinopathy and calcific tendinitis. A study published in the Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery demonstrated significant improvements in pain and function following shockwave therapy for calcific tendinitis of the shoulder.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar utilize advanced shockwave therapy techniques to target inflamed tissues, stimulate healing, and alleviate shoulder pain.
Chiropractic Care
Research suggests that chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate shoulder pain and improve joint function. A systematic review published in The Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics reported favorable outcomes for chiropractic treatment in patients with osteoarthritis.
Our skilled chiropractors employ gentle adjustments to restore proper alignment in the shoulder joint, reducing inflammation and discomfort associated with shoulder pain.
Soft TIssue Mobilization
Soft tissue mobilization techniques, such as massage therapy and myofascial release, can help alleviate shoulder pain and improve range of motion. A study published in Arthritis Care & Research demonstrated the efficacy of soft tissue mobilization in reducing pain and stiffness in patients with shoulder osteoarthritis.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer personalized soft tissue mobilization treatments to address muscular imbalances, reduce tension, and enhance mobility for individuals with shoulder pain.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy has emerged as a promising treatment for shoulder pain by promoting tissue repair and reducing inflammation. A meta-analysis published in Pain Medicine reported significant improvements in pain and function following PRP injections in patients with rotator cuff tears.
Our PRP therapy treatments utilize concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate healing and accelerate recovery in the shoulder joint, providing long-term relief and improved function.
Stem Cell Injections
Emerging research suggests that stem cell therapy may offer benefits for shoulder pain by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. A study published in Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery reported favorable outcomes in patients with shoulder osteoarthritis treated with mesenchymal stem cell injections.
Dr. Jessica Balbo and Dr. Jason Bojar offer advanced stem cell therapy options to support joint health and alleviate shoulder pain, helping you regain mobility and improve your quality of life.
