Extremity Injuries & Pain Relief

At The Shift Chiropractic, we believe your body's ability to move freely is key to whole-person wellness. Whether it's shoulder tension, wrist pain from long work hours, or sore knees after a workout, we meet you exactly where you are in your healing journey.

Through gentle extremity adjustments, functional movement training, and mindful lifestyle guidance, we help you get back into your body — balanced, strong, and pain-free.

Our Oakland team works with professionals, athletes, parents, and everyday movers who want relief without rough, one-size-fits-all treatment. Every session is built around your body's response, not a fixed protocol.

What Are Extremity Adjustments?

Extremity adjustments focus on the joints beyond your spine — the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. These joints can become misaligned from injury, overuse, or poor posture.

Our specialized care restores proper motion and alignment, relieves pressure on surrounding soft tissue, and improves your overall biomechanics. The result? Better movement, less pain, and more energy to do what you love.

Extremity adjustments are different from spinal adjustments — they're specific, often subtle, and require an understanding of how each joint's mechanics interact with the rest of the kinetic chain. That's what you get at The Shift.

Our Holistic Approach

We take a whole-body, whole-person approach to recovery. Each session is customized and may include:

  • Precision extremity adjustments for proper joint alignment
  • Functional movement exercises to support strength and stability
  • Lifestyle recommendations for posture, sleep, and daily ergonomics
  • Supplement and hydration guidance to reduce inflammation and support healing
  • Mindfulness techniques to reconnect you with your body's natural rhythm

This isn't just about fixing what hurts — it's about helping your entire system reset and perform better. Care is tailored by Dr. Ben Glass or Dr. Irina Velichko based on what your body is asking for at each visit.

Common Conditions We Treat

Our Oakland team has years of experience helping professionals, athletes, and everyday movers recover safely and prevent future injuries.

Shoulder Pain

Including frozen shoulder, rotator cuff strain, and impingement. Careful assessment of joint mobility and surrounding soft tissue.

Tennis & Golfer's Elbow

Chronic elbow pain from repetitive use. Extremity work combined with forearm soft-tissue release and ergonomic guidance.

Carpal Tunnel & Wrist Strain

Long hours at a keyboard or manual work can compress the wrist. Gentle wrist and forearm adjustments restore mobility.

Hip Alignment & Mobility

Hip dysfunction affects everything downstream — knees, ankles, and lower back. We address the root, not just the symptom.

Knee Pain & Instability

Whether from a sports injury, overuse, or compensating for something else, knee pain responds well to integrated extremity care.

Ankle Sprains & Plantar Fasciitis

Ankle and foot dysfunction is often overlooked. Restoring motion here frequently unlocks relief all the way up the body.

Not sure if your issue fits one of these categories? Book a consultation and we'll tell you honestly whether chiropractic is the right tool — or whether you need a referral somewhere else.
