Exercise for Shoulder Pain

Welcome to Exercise for Shoulder Pain. The shoulder joint is composed of three bones: the collarbone, the shoulder blade, and the upper arm bone. Two joints facilitate shoulder movement. The bones of the shoulder are held in place by muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Tendons are tough cords of tissue that attach the shoulder muscles to bone and assist the muscles in moving the shoulder. Ligaments attach shoulder bones to each other, providing stability. For example, the front of the joint capsule is anchored by three glenohumeral ligaments.

Shoulder Joint

Shoulder problems including pain, are one of the more common reasons for physician visits for musculoskeletal symptoms. The shoulder is the most movable joint in the body. However, it is an unstable joint because of the range of motion allowed. This instability increases the likelihood of joint injury, often leading to a degenerative process in which tissues break down and no longer function well.

Shoulder pain may be localized or may be referred to areas around the shoulder or down the arm. A shoulder separation is usually treated conservatively by rest and wearing a sling. Soon after injury, an ice bag may be applied to relieve pain and swelling. After a period of rest, a therapist helps the patient perform exercises that put the shoulder through its range of motion. Most shoulder separations heal within 2 or 3 months without further intervention. However, if ligaments are severely torn, surgical repair may be required to hold the clavicle in place.

The rotator cuff is a structure composed of tendons that, with associated muscles, holds the ball at the top of the humerus in the glenoid socket and provides mobility and strength to the shoulder joint.

Leave a comment, question or just stop by to say Hi” – manu@tridoshawellness.com Hi everyone, this is the second video in the series for shoulder pain treatments, more specifically scapular stabilization or shoulder blade muscle strengthening exercises. As I mentioned in the first video scapular stabilization and motor control exercises should be done first in the sequence for shoulder pain treatments. Followed by rotator cuff strengthening and eventually strengthening the big muscles. It is essential to build your scapular muscle strength before moving on to rotator cuff muscles. Your shoulder blade muscles are your base and the base has to be strengthened before strengthening the other muscles. Here I demonstrate the exercises in the standing to make the exercises more challenging. Optimal shoulder pain treatments require one to master these exercises before moving onto to higher level exercises.
