Recently, I have had a rash of patients with shoulder pain and injuries coming into the office. One of the most consistent findings I see, is that people are very rounded in their posture and have very tight pec (chest) muscles. A simple and effective way to approach this type of shoulder pain is a corner stretch. Place your hands AND ELBOWS (this is important) on each wall on either side of a corner. Lean your whole body into the corner so you feel the stretch in the front of you shoulders and possibly in the middle of your mid back. Hold this stretch for 30 seconds and repeat throughout the day.
