Maybe it started as a little ache. Then sleeping on that side became uncomfortable. Reaching overhead got harder. Before long, putting on a shirt, washing your hair, or reaching for something in the back seat of your car became a daily reminder that something wasn’t right.
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, can be a stubborn condition. But here's the good news: losing shoulder mobility doesn't automatically mean your shoulder is permanently damaged.
Ankle sprains are one of the most common sports and lifestyle injuries we see at Minnesota Movement Chiropractic & Sports Rehab in Excelsior. Whether you rolled your ankle playing basketball, stepped off a dock awkwardly at the lake, landed wrong during pickleball, or simply misjudged a curb while walking the dog - ankle sprains can become chronic problems fast if they aren’t treated correctly.

Tennis elbow — clinically known as lateral epicondylitis — is one of the most common overuse injuries we see in active adults, athletes, and high performers. Despite the name, you don’t need to touch a tennis (or pickleball) racket to develop it!
Tennis elbow occurs when the tendons that anchor the wrist and finger extensor muscles to the outside of the elbow are stressed beyond their capacity. Over time, this leads to irritation, micro-tearing, and eventually degeneration of the tendon tissue (epicondylosis) if left untreated.
