The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint that has three main bones: the humerus (long arm bone), the clavicle (collarbone), and the scapula (also known as the shoulder blade). These bones are cushioned by a layer of cartilage. There are two main joints. The acromioclavicular joint is between the highest part of the scapula and the clavicle. The glenohumeral joint is made up of the top, ball-shaped part of the humerus bone and the outer edge of the scapula. This joint is also known as the shoulder joint.
The shoulder joint is the most mobile joint in the body. It moves the shoulder forward and backward. It also allows the arm to move in a circular motion, and to move up and away from the body.
Shoulders get their range of motion from the rotator cuff. The rotator cuff is made up of four tendons. Tendons are the tissues that connect muscles to bone. It may be painful or difficult to lift your arm over your head if the tendons or bones around the rotator cuff are damaged or swollen.

“Before I came to Core Health, I could barely walk, and my daughter had to help me up the stairs. Now, I'm running--something I never thought I'd be able to do again! Letting the Docs treat me was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. If you suffer from back pain or knee pain, you owe it to yourself to pay them a visit.”
"I had been taking medications for hypo-Thyroidism for years , but I could NOT lose weight no matter what I tried. Since coming to Core Health I have lost 31.5 pounds and I feel SO much better!!"
"Before coming to Core Health my fatigue was so severe that some days I didn't even get out of bed. I averaged 19 steps per day for the month before I came here, and the pain in my Knees and other joints was severe. Core Health gave me my life back! I now get more than 10,000 steps per day, I exercise 3 days per week, and my husband and i are renovating our dream house!!"
