ACHING SHOULDERS:Nothing to Shrug Off

By a show of raised hands, how manyof you know that nearly 2/3 of adultsover the age of 60 have tears in their

rotator cuff tendon? Did you havetrouble raising your arm over your

head? Functional reach of the upperarm can be limited by arthritic joint

conditions, soft tissue inflammation ortears, and poor postural alignment

which prevents pain-free joint range.The shoulder joint is a common site

for skeletal pains because of thecomplex nature of its structure.

Multiple muscle, ligament, and jointstructures influence the alignment,

movement, and flexibility of theshoulder joint. A regular exercise

program for strength, flexibility, anduse of proper posture and reach

mechanics can greatly reduce yourrisk of shoulder problems.
