Overcome Shoulder Pain With 5 Simple Exercises!

Shoulder pain can cause a lot of distress in your life. It can restrict the free movement of the shoulders. Our shoulder consists of ball & socket joint and it has to be moved almost throughout the day to perform different activities. Pain occurs when we hurt ourselves while performing strenuous physical activities like sports or manual labour.
However, it can be addressed effectively by following a few appropriate exercises. Exercise helps to increase the flow of blood supply across the muscles and ligaments as well as reduce the pain considerably. 


1. Arm-across-chest-stretch
  • Grasp the right hand over and place it beside the waist
  • Bring your left hand behind the elbow
  • Pull the right arm across the left over the chest
  • To ease the pain, bring down the arm until pain subsides
  • Clasp for 30-60 seconds
  • Relax and repeat the process with the left arm
  • Perform 3-5 times


2. Neck Release
  • Sit straight and gently bring the chin towards the chest, stretch should be felt behind the neck
  • Lean the head to the left and stretch the right shoulder
  • Lean the head to the right and stretch the left shoulder

3. Chest Expansion
  • Put an exercise band behind the back
  • Clasp the band with both hands
  • Hold the band and bring the shoulder blades together
  • Slowly lift the chin upwards
  • Perform deep breathing for 10-15 seconds
  • Repeat  3-5 times
