4 Remedies for Shoulder and Neck Pains During Winter

December 24, 2021BlogBy Toby Marchand

It’s the holidays, the happiest time of the year. However, despite the delicious food, splendid gifts, and holiday parties, some people dread the winter season. This is because the cold weather tends to flare up shoulder and neck pains and can cause major discomfort especially for those people who are hypersensitive to the cold. The good thing is we have pain management acupuncture to assess these types of problems. Also, people who suffer from conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis are especially susceptible to the pain.

People also tend to hunch over when the temperature drops, thus, this will be more painful for people with shoulder problems due to constant muscle contractions and increased stress to the shoulders. Also, the cold weather outside has the tendency to limit our activities inside our home, chaining ourselves in the comforts of our beds and sofa which will cause muscle rigidity due to lack of exercise.

And the cold, frigid weather is especially not friendly to our senior loved ones. Since seniors tend to have less body fat and weak joints, they are more susceptible to muscle stiffness and chronic pain such as arthritis during cold days. To ease the pain of our senior loved ones, check out shoulder pain acupuncture which can help relieve pain and reduce inflammation.

Here are some remedies to ease shoulder and neck pains during the cold winter:

  1. Don’t skip a workout or exercise even its cold outside

Regular exercise will not only make you fit but can also reduce the risk of shoulder and neck pains during the winter. This is because stretching the muscles can help release the tension in our necks and shoulders. If the cold is unbearable outside, take out your yoga mat and do exercises at home instead of Netflix and chill which would make your muscle even stiffer.

For our senior loved ones, regular stretching of the shoulders and neck can greatly reduce the pain and discomfort. Activities like yoga or tai-chi can also help in reducing the stiffness in the muscles.

  1. Avoid hunching or curling up and bad posture

We know the feeling of being extremely cold, and you just want to hunch and curl up in the comforts of your blanket. But that is also the reason why you are experiencing shoulder and neck pains. It is best to maintain a good posture to avoid muscle rigidity in the shoulder. Also, allowing your shoulders to relax to release the tension and hunching will definitely cause stress in your muscles. If still in pain, you can try shoulder pain acupuncture to ease it.

  1. Hot compress is your friend

A good home remedy to relieve shoulder and neck pains is by using a hot compress. The heat from the hot compress can help relax tense muscles and soothe stiff shoulders. This may be a simple solution but can be very beneficial to relieve yourself from any shoulder and neck pains. Pro-tip: Get your hands on some handy heat packs to keep yourself warm even if you are outside.

  1. Acupuncture for shoulder and neck pain

Acupuncture is a thousand-year-old traditional Chinese medicine that uses very thin needles inserted in strategic points in the skin to help relieve pain and even cure some diseases. Pain management acupuncture can address chronic shoulder and neck pain which are particularly common during the winter season. Marchand Orthopedic Acupuncture is expert in pain management and uses different innovative techniques to help alleviate the pain and reduce inflammation of their patients. If you care about your loved ones, especially the seniors, relieve them from the pain and discomforts of shoulder and neck pain by booking an appointment now!
