SHOULDER PAIN TIP 5

“How To Reduce Postural Stress On Your Shoulder”

Poor posture plays a big role in causing most shoulder pain issues.  By correcting your faulty posture, you can mostly eliminate the chance of reoccurring shoulder problems.  Unfortunately, most people cannot avoid poor posture due to their jobs.  If you sit at work at a desk all day or if you work in a factory in assembly, you know you cannot do much to change your posture.  So this is what you need to do.  For every half hour of sitting or standing over a counter/desk you need to take one minute to re-correct your posture.  You can do this through an exercise called “Bruggers Posture”.

Brugger's posture also helps to counter-act "upper crossed syndrome".  This syndrome afflicts almost anyone who works at a desk or in a factory line where they are in the same position all day long.

Bruggers posture comes from a neurologist over in Europe who developed a number of key postural exercises to help correct this problem.  Please click on the link below to get the exercises on how to correct your posture:
