The Road to Health & Happiness

Juegos Are you suffering from shoulder pain, then I sympathise. At the end of last year I managed to tear my rotator cuff. If you know what the rotator cuff is either you are in the medical profession or you have already managed to damage yours. Around 30% of people will suffer a shoulder injury at some time and the vast majority are rotator cuff problems.

I did not give much thought to how my shoulders worked until one of them went wrong. Now I know so much, I could write a book on the subject.

TrabajarIf the shoulder or arms are affected, simple movements involve stretching the arm gently in various positions, and using isometrics, or resistance to strengthen the muscles.

• Clasp hands together, and raise them over head ten times.
• Standing next to a wall, walk the fingers up the wall as far as possible, and hold for a count of ten. Repeat ten times.
• Stand with your back against the wall, and keeping elbows straight, push arms against the wall. Hold for a count of ten. Repeat ten times
• Keep elbows bent at 90 degrees, and raise hand toward stomach while holding a light weight (a soup can is a handy weight). Slowly return. Repeat ten times.
For low back pain, simple exercises involve moving the legs and hips to restore flexibility and strengthen the lower back muscles. Stretching and isometrics are effective to minimize pain and increase mobility.

Trabajo Empleo Like me, it could be a rotator cuff problem. The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that all help to hold the head of the upper arm into the shoulder. Tear one of them and you have constant shoulder pain whenever you try lifting your arm above shoulder height.

Bursitis of the shoulder can be equally painful. The bursa is a sac of fluid that helps to protect the shoulder joint as it moves. It can become inflamed in which case you will experience pain with virtually every movement.

Frozen shoulder on the other hand is caused by the internal membrane that surrounds the shoulder joint. This can become inflamed following an injury, scar tissue can form and the shoulder can become painful and have severely restricted movement.

Alright, enough of the doom and gloom. I suffered shoulder pain for six months, I was even told that I needed surgery to correct my torn rotator cuff and then I started looking into shoulder injuries and discovered that a lot of them can be sorted out with just exercise. Even if you require surgery, exercise will feature strongly in the recovery process.

So having found out that exercise is so important the next thing was to find out the exercise that suited me best. I did not want to try any weights simply because I am not a member of a gym and I could not see how lifting weights was going to do anything but harm. My research has since confirmed this.

I started looking into Yoga and Pilates. These come across as gentle exercises that allow you to do as much as you comfortably can. They focus on control and flexibility as well as strength and use the bodies own resistance to strengthen weakened muscles. Because you are working within your own limits there was little chance of doing extra damage.

Soft tissue massage is crucial for RSI treatment. Sports massage encourages the damaged structures to return to the normal length and function, it clears away the inflammation and brings new blood flow to the region. It also reduces pain and helps break up scar tissue and knots if there has been any build up. This enables the strengthening exercises to be more effective you can be published without charge.
