About Calcific Shoulder Tendinitis
What you should know
Calcific shoulder tendinitis occurs when calcium deposits build up within the rotator cuff tendons, causing significant pain and restricted movement. This condition can produce some of the most intense shoulder pain of any tendon disorder. When conservative treatment fails to provide lasting relief, focused shockwave therapy is one of the most well-researched non-surgical options for stimulating calcium resorption and reducing pain.
Our approach
How We Treat Calcific Shoulder Tendinitis
At Chiropractic Remedy, we use focused shockwave therapy to stimulate your body's natural breakdown and resorption of calcium deposits while promoting tendon healing.
Shockwave therapy may help by:
- 1Stimulating calcium deposit fragmentation and resorption
- 2Increasing circulation to the rotator cuff
- 3Promoting collagen repair in the surrounding tendon
- 4Reducing acute and chronic pain sensitivity
- 5Improving shoulder mobility and functional range of motion
Shockwave therapy is non-surgical, drug-free, and requires no downtime. Many patients begin noticing improvement within a few treatments.
Shockwave therapy may be appropriate if:
- Imaging has confirmed calcium deposits in the rotator cuff
- Shoulder pain has lasted longer than 6–8 weeks
- Conservative care or anti-inflammatories haven't resolved symptoms
- You want to avoid cortisone injections or surgery
- You're looking for an evidence-based, non-invasive treatment option
