Problems with shoulders is another really common condition. These can range from a niggly shoulder right the way through to the frozen shoulder where you can barely move your arm. The shoulder joint is very shallow so you can get a wide range of motion. So the arm is basically strapped to the shoulder blade by a bunch of muscles and ligaments. When you consider the work that they have done over the years and the injuries sustained, it is not surprising that the muscles accumulate damage which in the worse case can lead to surgery or even a shoulder replacement. Maintaining balanced tension between the muscles on the front and back of the shoulder as well as developing enough muscle tone or strength to hold it all together is vital to long term shoulder function. If you are at all concerned about your shoulders then consult an osteopath and get a thorough diagnosis as to what is going on and then get into the SFL shoulder exercises and you will be amazed at how helpful they will be for you.
