In case this is one of your problems, they do talk a bit about shoulder pain which was one of my problems although my shoulder never subluxed.
This has nothing to do with chiropractic subluxation.

The shoulder complex consists of four separate joints,
which afford it incredible mobility in all planes of motion,
but at the expense of its stability. The glenohumeral joint
(GHJ) relies on the integrity of muscular and capsuloligamentous
structures rather than bony conformation for its
stability [1]. Injury or paralysis of muscles around the
shoulder complex may lead to GHJ subluxation. Glenohumeral
subluxation (GHS), a frequent complication for
patients with a poststroke hemiplegia, is reported to be
present in 17 to 81 percent of patients with hemiplegia
following stroke [2], However, GHS’s role in poststroke
complications is still controversial. Although the impact
of GHS on the development of shoulder pain (SP) and
upper-limb functional recovery has not been completely
explained, a number of authors [2–6] consider GHS an
important source of SP. Moreover, several recent reviews
focused on SP describe GHS management as the main
intervention to prevent SP [2,5–6]. Thus, although GHS is
probably the most cited problem causing shoulder complications
after stroke, no paper is available that focuses
directly on this problem and describes in detail the main
aspects of the origin, assessment, or treatment of this frequent
and poorly understood complication.
This paper intends to—
• provide an extensive overview on GHS,
• help explain its role in poststroke complications,
• report the reliability and validity of clinical evaluations,
and
• summarize the effectiveness studies on its prevention
and management.

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,116 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
