In the past, lower back pain was the most common issue, but with changes in lifestyle, shoulder stiffness has significantly increased. Factors such as sedentary jobs and the widespread use of PCs and smartphones contribute to this symtomp, often leading to spinal misalignment. Some people complain of heaviness and fatigue, while others experience such severe pain that they can’t endure it.

The reason for shoulder stiffness is often attributed to the misalignment of the spine caused by uneven use of muscles. The human body constantly maintains balance and posture while bearing the force of gravity. However, due to preferences such as dominant hand or dominant foot, the use of muscles can differ between the left and right sides or front and back of the body. People experiencing intense shoulder stiffness may have developed an imbalance due to changes in lifestyle, leading to a forward-leaning posture that overuses the muscles in the shoulders and back. In some cases, persistent use of one arm, such as carrying heavy loads on one shoulder, contributes to the issue.

At Handless Seitai, we assist in the recovery of overused muscles and guide the body to a posture that engages underutilized muscles by correcting spinal misalignment. If you wish to break free from troublesome shoulder stiffness, please feel free to contact our clinic.
