[@DeniseBarnaal]

[@LearnSomatics]

Nice work, if you liked that sequence for shoulders here's another you may find useful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZ2zaZVomtKoo5Y Thanks for watching.

[@reckless3369]

Thanks Colm that's great.

[@LearnSomatics]

You’re welcome Eric. Hope you’re keeping well.

[@reckless3369]

@@LearnSomatics also Colm, just to point out on your video, I think it's the third part where we are retracting the shoulder, the description in the text says it's a protraction.

[@reckless3369]

It's the second part. It says protraction when it's actually retraction.

[@LearnSomatics]

@@reckless3369 ah okay I’ll put a note in the description. My bad. Thanks for the heads up.

[@ooguko]

Hey Colm, another great video! Thank you. My tight shoulders have gotten a lot better range with your help but I am still feeling some crunchiness when I rotate that I can't seem to shake. Should I expect it to get better with longer practice or is it related to something else?

[@LearnSomatics]

It should improve for sure as all your muscles relax. Do the following two videos on ONE shoulder. Then rotate your arms and see if there is a difference between them. Then do the other shoulder. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWTaeY2mjdWgbbM kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZ2zaZVomtKoo5Y One more simple tip, when rotating your arms, focus on opening your armpits as your arms go round slowly. Let me know how that goes.

[@ooguko]

@@LearnSomatics thank you! I will keep you posted

[@cinmac3]

Important detail , I started to move from my waist/hip a little thinking it might help that area to stop the strain in my sides , but then you said , not to move your trunk. I will try to explain , if needed!

[@LearnSomatics]

In this one I’m trying to address the rotator cuff somewhat in isolation which is why I said to leave the trunk mostly still. But you can certainly add some trunk movement. Try both and compare and contrast what you get from each.

[@cinmac3]

@@LearnSomaticsi liked the trunk one, when i find it i will try it ,i did too many todey, but, little impvement in sholder/ waist/ hip?

[@cinmac3]

Thanks for telling us your only doing one side.

[@redpilled9595]

Nice one again. Could you do one of a hiked hip or rotated pelvis one day. Just a suggestion 🙂

[@LearnSomatics]

Sure, I’ll put it on the list.

[@cinmac3]

Good That might help to pair that with this one,I am trying to learn what I do to bring the pain back so soon.?

[@cinmac3]

did you do what was asked by someone two years ago.

[@cinmac3]

A question on this move , it and all the moves I have done didn't seem to relieve the tension on. back of the shoulder, I also have tension in the chest area from a case of shingles at least a year ago, that left me with nerve damage in chest and shoulders girdle on the left side, the pain in the back of shoulder. and chest might be from that with a pain that is there on the back of the R.hip, that's there alot, too. I don't know what is related to what?

[@LearnSomatics]

It’s hard for me to say anything definitive about that Cindy. What I will say is if the tension is in the back of the shoulder. Do movements that involve taking the shoulder backwards. The first part of the BackLift also, which involves lifting the elbow is good for rear shoulder pain too.

[@cinmac3]

I lost which back lift had the elbow on my side first. ( Separate from the head) , do understand what I mean?

[@LearnSomatics]

@@cinmac3 this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnzQYoeGhaydgMU

[@cinmac3]

I thought the pain i have all the day from when I wake in the shoulder rotator cuff Supraspinatus , it's something the. won't get relieved from the movements i do. Any thoughts ?

[@LearnSomatics]

Susan Koenig has some good Seated Movements that will get that very easily. Check her Seated Somatics playlist

[@cinmac3]

i can only bearly press my ribs down with my forearm when i lie on my back, my shoulder wont let me. i wish i new my whys, its my body ? Any thoughts ?

[@LearnSomatics]

If you can't press ribs down, lift them up first, ie; pandiculate the opposite movement a few times. Then try pressing down again.

[@cinmac3]

@@LearnSomatics of course, i will give it a go.

[@cinmac3]

It wont work for my right shoulder. i don't know if it's because of osteoporosis or a nuerolgical thing, would you know how I could figure that out?

[@cinmac3]

😮Colm iff my RC and under my arm and armpit is still sore can you give me asuggestion.. I have down fingered, to remind me , this is one sided, seems to help a little, more than the other shoulder.

[@cinmac3]

Do you want me to remind you when you forget toanswer or just figure or assume.you didn't have an answer. .?

[@cinmac3]

Hi Colm, i have been meaning to ask for quite awhile now my left arm that has alot of tension the bone inside of elbow area clicks on the mat when i put ny arm down ( cactus aem movement) and its been sore under my armpit and that side and my shoulder sometimes crunches.

[@cinmac3]

i meant this statement i meant this question ?
