Shoulder problems are extremely common. First, because there is more mobility in our shoulder joints than in any other joints in our body. This makes them especially vulnerable to strain, overuse, and injury.
And second, because our shoulders are among the most emotionally reactive parts of our body. Due to the close connection between our sympathetic nervous system and our shoulders, our shoulders often reflect our moods and feelings. They tend to rise, round, and become tense in response to anxiety, self-protection, fear, and anger. But that's not all. Many people report that their shoulders also rise up, round and become tense habitually as they work on their computers, text, or do household chores! Habitual shoulder tension rarely goes away on its own and can lead to injuries and problems in other parts of the body, as time goes on.
"Thank you for creating this program. My shoulders are moving in ways they haven’t been able to do since I was a teenager. I didn't know that was still possible!"
