Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treat your own rotator cuff? Who needs to worry about that? According to the medical research, a lot of people. The rotator cuff, a group of four, flat tendons that connect to the critical muscles that stabilize your shoulder, can cause a lot more problems than you might think. Consider a few of these statistics from the published literature: .It's simply just a matter of time until the majority of shoulders get a rotator cuff tear. According to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, approximately 4% of people under forty years of age have a torn rotator cuff. After age sixty, however, 54% of people have one (Sher 1995). .Once the rotator cuff gets torn, it doesn't look good either. One study followed a group of patients with tears in their rotator cuffs and found that 80% of the them went on to either enlarge or turn into full thickness tears-in less than a two-year period (Yamanaka 1994). As you can tell, rotator cuff problems aren't just for elite athletes. Seriously consider investing just a few minutes a week doing the simple exercises in this book if you: .have been diagnosed with either a partial or full thickness rotator cuff tear (yes, many studies show that even full thickness tears can be helped with exercise ) .experience shoulder pain .do upper body weight lifting .have a job or play a sport where you do a lot of work with your arms above shoulder level .have been diagnosed with "impingement syndrome" .want a healthy and properly functioning rotator cuff So whether you already suffer from a rotator cuff problem, or simply want to prevent one, Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff will guide you step-by-step through an evidence-based program that can iron-plate your shoulders in just minutes a week.

Download or read book Fixing You written by Rick Olderman and published by Rick Olderman. This book was released on 2010 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fixing You: Shoulder & Elbow Pain highlights the shoulder blade as the primary culprit in shoulder and elbow problems. If the shoulder blade does not move properly, adverse stress is placed on the shoulder joint because the upper arm bone will not rest or move well either. Fixing You: Shoulder & Elbow Pain teaches you why this occurs and how to fix it. Problems with shoulder blade function, by extension, establish the environment for elbow injuries such as tennis elbow or golfers elbow. For this reason, to fix chronic elbow pain, problems must be addressed at both the shoulder and elbow. Fixing pain in the shoulder and elbow is much like fixing pain anywhere in the body. You must understand which muscles and joints are not working well and grasp how those problems feed poor movement habits which then reinforce the original poor muscle and joint function. This creates a cycle of pain. Visit www.FixingYou.net to learn more.
