“As promised here are your free shoulder pain exercises! ”

Shoulder pain isn't a joke. It's a very serious problem that plagues THOUSANDS of people just like you and me every day. Stopping them from enjoying their lives to their full extent. Not allowing them to work, play with their children, and other serious problems. But the good news is, this dastardly problem can be easily treated, once you know just HOW to cure it.

To cure shoulder pain, we must first diagnose it. Shoulder pain can be caused from several different variables. One of the most common is soreness of the tendon of the rotator cuff (the part of your shoulder that helps rotate). This can occur when you do strenuous activities such as lifting, playing sports, painting, etc. This may not seem like a serious problem at first, but as time passes by and you continue these daily activities, your shoulder can weaken and become more and more sore. If left untreated, you could develop bigger problems such as frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), and rotator cuff tendonitis (bursitis).

As soon as you start feeling symptoms of shoulder pain, you should diagnose what you did. Find out what caused it, if you don't know, it's okay. Once we have diagnosed the problem, we must treat it accordingly. If there is severe pain, you might want to take some kind of pain killer (ibuprofen, advil, etc). If the pain continues, go see a health care professional.

There are several excersises you can do to strengthen your shoulders, and keep them healthy and strong. If these exercises cause too much pain, please discontinue using them. Here are three of my favourite:

Upper Arm Strengthening

As the pain dulls, try to squeeze an upper body weight lifting program to your schedule. My favourite, is to lie on your side, with your painful shoulder pointing up (if both are sore, repeat for each). Place a weight in your hand, and lay your forearm across your abdomen. Raise your forearm up off of your stomach while keeping your elbow near your side.

Rotator Cuff Training

Use a resistance band, or some other kind of thick elastic tubing for this exercise. Position yourself near a closed door. Wrap the band around the doorknob. Using your hand closest to the door, bend your arm at a 90 angle and grab the loop. Pull the band across your chest. First, do 1 set of 10 reps. Increase the number of sets as your shoulder heals. This excersise should be repeated every day.

Range Of Motion Test

Stand up and arch your back so you're facing the floor. Slowly droop your sore arm towards the ground. Trace circles in the air with your dangling arm. Start making small circles, and then do larger ones. Do this exercise 5 - 10 times a day. If it's too painful, stop.
