Thanks Margaret, I will give this a try… My shoulders, neck, and back hurts at the end of the day.

Very helpful info and video. Rounded shoulders and bad posture developed because I still need to use canes, rollators after breaking left hip and injuring right knee. Posture awareness is vital. Happy Holidays!

Hi Nile, Thank you for your kind words. Since you are wanting to avoid surgery I encourage you to find a good massage therapist and physiotherapist.
I have worked with two clients in the past year with similar injuries (on one arm only) and with gradual progressive strengthening of their remaining shoulder muscles they have regained 80 – 90% of their range of motion, painfree. See if you can find a sports Physiotherapist in your neighbourhood who is can guide you. They both started strengthening 4 – 6 months after their initial injury, having first worked with a massage therapist and another physiotherapist who focused on for pain control and regaining their passive range of motion. I wish you much success in regaining some strength and movement.
Margaret

This is a great article. I have both arms with massive torn rotator cuffs and right torn bicep. The orthopedist write shoulders rotate forward when walking. I do not want both reverse shoulder replacements with metal at 70. I do compensate well with my injuries but can’t lift out and forward from my elbows nor lift above my elbows without having a wall to ‘walk my arm up ‘. Good article.

This is really excellent, helpful information! Thank you so much for posting. I can’t tell you how many times I hear people tell someone to “stand up straight”, but there are never any specific steps given.
