JUST ONE THING

If there’s one quick movement that I recommend the MOST for cranky shoulders, it’s this!

Your JUST ONE THING to Ease Shoulder Pain

Do Shoulder “Glides” Daily

‍

Shoulder Glides—or shoulder blade glides—leave you feeling instantly refreshed and “put back together”.

WHY do they work?

✅ Reduces knots & aches

✅ Improves overall shoulder mobility

✅ Boosts posture by engaging key posture muscles

✅ Feels ah-mazing after long days at a desk or on your phone!

I do them literally everyday.

You’ll be surprised how much better your upper body feels after a set of these.

Watch the video below on how to do shoulder glides and several variations.

‍

Shoulder Glides for Shoulder Pain Relief

  1. Glide your shoulder bladees forward & backward with arms straight out in front of you
  2. Try gliding with arms pointed down, arms pointing upward, and then glide around in circles
  3. Do a minimum of 10 reps total

Extra Tip: If you’re in the middle of an activity that tends to strain your neck and shoulders, pause every 10-15 minutes and do 10 of these shoulder blade glides.

Did You Know...

  • Many chronic shoulder pain issues—like rotator cuff problems and impingement or bursitis—stem from “sticky” and immobile shoulder blades. Get them moving!
  • If you have a shoulder injury and can’t exercise fully, shoulder blade glides are a great way to maintain some shoulder strength and support without aggravating the healing tissues.
  • When we’re stressed out, we are more likely to take short and shallow breaths, using the muscles up around the collarbones to help breathe—which can lead to strain over time. Deep breathing exercises can help decrease shoulder and neck pain by shifting how you breathe.

‍Until next week... Be strong💪‍
