So much great information thank you. I would love to see Lesley do a workshop working with someone with restrictive shoulder movement to get a greater view of how to modify and cue when the client is struggling more to achieve the exercise.
I would work in the range that the client is painfree. Sometimes by activating and awakening the shoulder girdle muscles especially rotator cuff muscles can help mobilize the shoulder. Getting the client aware of unnecessary bracing is important.
Some women in menopause get frozen shoulders. I have seen this even with very active women. These women should work with a health professional to unlock muscles. As movement professionals we can help retrain in painfree ranges of motion healthy shoulder function.
Such great information - thanks for sharing it! Can definitely feel my serratus and my shoulders feel free! Have a few clients who will benefit greatly from this so will be reviewing again (and again!)
