Shoulder Mobility Resource Guide
Poor shoulder mobility is something I see constantly in practice, and it's no surprise. Between desk work, driving, and daily stress, our shoulders take a beating. The good news is that a few minutes of intentional mobility work can make a real difference in how your shoulders feel and function.
The videos below are great starting points whether you're dealing with stiffness, recovering from an injury, or just want to keep your shoulders healthy long-term.
A note from Dr. Sandy: If you're experiencing shoulder pain, clicking, or limited range of motion, check in with us before diving in. Some of these movements may need to be modified depending on what's going on with your shoulder.
Shoulder Mobility Routine #1 - 10 mins.
A solid all-around shoulder mobility routine that works through the key ranges of motion your shoulder needs to move well. Great for anyone who spends time at a desk or feels chronically tight through the upper body.
Shoulder Mobility Routine #2 - 5 Mins.
Another excellent full routine targeting shoulder flexibility and control. This one is a great complement to the first, use them on alternating days or pick whichever feels best for your body that day.
Shoulder Mobility Routine #3 - 10 mins.
A thorough shoulder mobility session focused on helping you feel and move your best. This one goes deep into the mechanics of a healthy shoulder and is worth doing slowly and intentionally.
Your shoulders do a lot for you every day, a little maintenance goes a long way. As always, reach out if you have questions about any of these movements or want personalized guidance at your next visit.
