Tendonitis or Bursitis

Shane has a sore shoulder – and has for weeks. He seems to think it could possibly be Tendonitis or Bursitis (inflammation of a soft-tissue structure). We aren’t sure where it started but it doesn’t seem to be going away. There are a lot of treatments out there, but the main thing he read is that he needs to ice it and take Ibuprofen. This is the perfect time to use some anti-inflammatory oils. Wintergreen is a great anti-inflammatory. PanAway has Wintergreen in it and is an anti-inflammatory. Of course the Deep Relief Roller is a great option. Copiaba is another great oil. Of course icing is key…but using oils to bring the inflammation down is one method of healing we’ll use. I think – as usual – it is key to be consistent with applications.

We’ll hope he can sleep on that hurt shoulder again soon.
