Top 3 Shoulder Pain Relief Stretches

First up is a rhomboid stretch. It can help loosen up the mid to upper back area as well as the shoulders.


Next, an upper trap stretch is great for the shoulders, neck, and the upper back area. This area also holds a lot of tightness when we are stressed.


Finally, a chest (pec) stretch will help open up the front of the shoulders and chest area. When the pec muscles are tight, they will pull or roll the shoulders forward, which can cause pain and bad posture.

Oh I'm happy to see more shoulder stretches! I'll try adding these to my morning stretch routine. I have chronic problems with my shoulders since I started drawing and doing computer work daily for hours.

I’m a flight attendant and always have shoulder pain from the heavy aircraft doors. This was an amazing video and easy PLUS my shoulders feel better already!

The first and last one were absolute life savers

Whenever I'm in tremendous pain i found this channel so helpful.thank u .

[adg]

That last move really activated the part on my shoulder that was in pain, I'm not sure if that means I should keep doing it and "stretch through the pain", or to avoid that one.

Thanks m'am. I felt quite a bit looser after that. Looking forward to starting a stretching regimen on my breaks while working from home.

I remember the last two from one of your old 5-minute routines - I find it's perfect for doing on a break away from the desk. But I might sub in that first one on occasion too :)
