Our Approach to Shoulder Pain


We start with a world-class assessment to understand why you’re experiencing shoulder pain. This means we look beyond just “where it hurts”. This includes movement analysis, joint and tissue evaluation, and a detailed conversation about your lifestyle, training and goals.

1. Assess the Root-Cause


Our first priority is helping you feel better. We use a combination of evidence-informed treatments to decrease pain and calm irritated tissues. Some of these include: chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy (myofascial scraping, cupping), and dry needling among others.

2. Reduce Pain & Discomfort


We aim to restore faulty movement patterns that are likely the root cause of your pain. Once we have reduced some of the irritation & pain, we shift our focus to how your body moves. This is where long-term results are built. Treatment may include: targeted mobility work, functional rehabilitation exercises using techniques such as Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), the McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT), GRIP Approach, and other traditional rehabilitation exercises.

3. Restore Movement & Function


4. Return to the Activities you Love

Our goal isn’t just symptom relief, it’s getting you back to doing what you enjoy with confidence. Whether that’s working out, playing sports, or staying active with your family. We build a plan that supports your lifestyle and goals.


It’s important to note that no two cases of shoulder pain are exactly the same. That’s why every treatment plan is tailored to the individual. At Main Health Collective, we combine chiropractic care, movement-based rehabilitation, and hands-on therapy to help you move better, feel better, and stay better.

  • “I really liked that treatment was a combination of chiropractic manipulation, therapy, and rehab/strengthening and not just focused on one single aspect. I was really impressed with Dr. (Zach) Main and the care and treatment that I received from him. Highly recommended!”

  • “Absolutely love Dr. Marissa! She has explained so much to me on one visit than all my doctors combined in several years! She was able to tell me things from reading my bloodwork that my doctors did not even pick up. Honestly amazing! She is so sweet, really listens and like I said really explains things! I highly recommend her!"

  • “Had a great experience with Dr. (Zach) Main! Came in with back and hip problems I had been dealing with for a year and a half but with adjustments and functional rehab work, I am back to feeling just as good if not better than I was before my injury. Would highly recommend for your chiropractic care.”

  • “I was a patient of Dr. Marissa for nearly two years, and she was my very first naturopathic doctor. From the beginning, working with Dr. Marissa transformed my life. She embodies compassion. She cared so deeply and genuinely about my medical concerns, and from day one treated me as though she truly knew me. Over time, our doctor-patient relationship grew into a space of deep trust and I felt safe bringing her everything including my frustrations, my fears, my health struggles. I felt this way because I knew that I would be met with honesty, warmth, and unwavering care and support. On a consistent basis, she went above and beyond to ensure that I felt comfortable, heard, and supported.”
