Got my ultrasound result 2 months ago, and still debating whether to go to a Physio or Chiro?
My results says:
1. No obvious muscle tear identified around the scapula.
2. Mild supraspinatus tendinosis. No obvious rotator cuff tear identified.
3. Mild subacromial bursitis with impingement. Ultrasound guided steroid injection may be useful if clinically indicated.
Let me know which one i should go for, my GP says go to a Physio but I just want to know what you guys think.
And would my result cause tingling/numbness on the scapula, stiff neck and mild headaches?
Thanks in advance!

I'd tend to recommend physio over chiro, as physios typically attack the issue from more than one angle, and attack both cause and symptoms, whereas chiros mostly just want to crack your vertebrae.
SQ 172.5kg. BP 105kg. DL 200kg. OHP 62.5kg @ 67.3kg

It definitely depends on the Chiro. Most just go through the motions. I had major tendonitis in my corocobracialis after a lifting injury and my chiro worked directly on the muscle plus heat, ultrasound, etc. The guy I went to was listed with the county as a specialist in sports injuries. Do your homework and find the right chiro.
