Top 5 Shoulder Impingement Exercises To Help Get Healthy Again

Shoulder impingement should not last more than 4-6 weeks if you do the right treatment.

Doing the right exercises is a must! Otherwise, that shoulder pain will stay there much longer than it needs to and possibly progress to tendonitis, bursitis, or even a rotator cuff problem.

In this video, Dr. David shows you the Top 5 Shoulder Impingement Exercises To Help You Get Healthy Again.

With all of these exercises, you should feel better when doing these, not worse. Make sure not to do anything that makes your symptoms feel worse.

I've been struggling with my shoulder pain for months. I did the exercises as shown and finally got relief. Glad I found your channel. Thanks

This is literally the best shoulder impingement solution video on Youtube

Wow, I'm 40 years with one arm and I was told I need a full shoulder replacement on my only"good" shoulder. My 2nd opinion Dr said I scare the hell out of him. Because I have one arm and the 1 or 2 present that go bad jumps exponentially.. The exercises are giving me relief. Thank You SO much for this video. God Bless You 😇

Just so you know? You are interesting. Informative. Clear. Wise. Informed. Experienced.
I SO appreciate you.

Update on my 4th shoulder impingement, the first time it took 3 years to heal because I had no idea what to do, the second time it was 2 years for the same reason, 3rd time it was a year, I was starting to get some knowledge, this time I had impingement on both shoulders and I was looking for lots of ideas, this doctor has some very effective exercises and with his help and some others, I was able to be completely pain free in 2 months, needless to say, I'm thrilled, thank you doctor, you know your stuff !!

[caseykronos]

I'm so glad you're suggesting trap and overhead exercises. So many shoulder disfunction videos don't include that information or recognize the shrugging motion as an issue.

[markseares]

increased my shoulder mobility immediately your're the man.

I'm 70 and I'm on my 4th shoulder impingement, have done a lot of research and looking at videos, I think that this Dr. knows his stuff, got great relief from the first exercise and have been doing it a lot, after about a month, I feel almost normal and am ready to start working out again, carefully. Thank you for the great service !!

I’ve been struggling with shoulder pain for nearly 2 months … I went to the orthopedist and attended over 10 physiotherapy sessions in which they did ultrasound therapy, massage and hot and cold compresses … it DID NOT improve one bit :(
I found your video 3 days ago and after performing those exercises throughout the day (mainly the third one) I’m so so much better! I’d say 85% better.
This is incredible! Thank you so much!

[burhancankaya]

I WANNA SAY THOUSAND THANKS YOU Dr.El Paso! I have been dealing with this issue since i got true symptom after meeting proper doctor and then i did all your exercises. Thanks to you, the shoulder has gotten better, there is no pain anymore, but there are only minor injuries, that's all. Again you saved my desperation. May GOD bless you :)

[ninjedi]

Gr8 stuff. The subtleties of hanging helping a lot with recent shoulder injury. Also revolutionary paradigm re/ glutes over quads helping with chronic knee injuries. Kudos!

[betsybeard]

I am very grateful to have found you .

[alanfidelino]

I watched numerous videos from several PTs, and tried their exercises but nothing worked. Your first 3 exercises already gave me so much relief. I will keep doing them and hopefully bring back my shoulders to the pink of health. Thank you very much.

[debbiedirr]

This is exactly what I was looking for!! No special equipment and progressive for those of us in pain. Thank you so much!!

[kimberlycorona]

Wow! On day one I could barely do exercises one and two without screaming. Doing number three with an elbow plank was never going to happen. Fast forward to day four of doing exercises one and two and I was able to do three sets of exercise number three. After suffering with shoulder pain for months I’m so grateful to have found your videos. Thank you! I’ll probably be canceling that appointment to get a referral to have this checked out with an orthopedist. 🙏

[monikawilliams]

You are the only person that has helped me, can you do I video on Fibromyalgia exercises thank you so much! Bless you!

[Tom_Chow]

This is so good. I have should pain for 2 weeks and I am a side sleeper. Did this exercise for the first time and the improvement is dramatic. My arm can reach back with ease now. Thank you so much.

[carpwithnoname]

Struggling for over 3 years with complex shoulder pains after bicep tendon injury. Instant pain relief and better muscle strength after the first three exercises. Day two ongoing with the next two and feeling great. Thank you for sharing this content doctor 🙏

[MrGejonewsom]

I’m not following anyone else, I’ve found the guy 💯

[rdelarosadr]
