Maintaining good shoulder strength and flexibility are crucial to maintaining good shoulder health, especially as you get older. If you have shoulder pain that’s preventing you from working out, talk to your physiotherapist about how you can incorporate pressing exercises back into your workout routine. Here are some things to consider when returning to pressing exercises with shoulder pain, thanks to Dr Aneja Physiotherapy at Home Services in Zirakpur.
Why doing pressing exercises is important
Pressing exercises are important for shoulder health because they strengthen stabilizing muscles, which can improve pain and reduce instability. This stability can also help you perform daily tasks like lifting your arm over your head or reaching behind you. However, it is important that you exercise correctly in order to avoid any further injury or pain. A physiotherapist in zirakpur can show you how to safely perform pressing exercises at home or in the gym.
Why it is difficult to get back to your routine if you have had shoulder pain before
It can be very difficult to return to your routine if you have had shoulder pain before. This is because our routines can be strenuous, and it’s difficult for us to know what we can do and what we cannot do. The following are some factors that may affect your ability to get back into the swing of things.
* Your injury may affect different parts of your body – such as neck, back or wrist;
* You may experience pain in other areas that aren’t related to your original injury;
* If you have been out for an extended period of time due to an injury, your muscles may have atrophied and become weaker than before;
* You might not be able to participate in activities that require too much upper body strength.
How I got my client back on track
I had one client who was very frustrated with her shoulder pain. She had been working on some pressing movements in our workout, but she couldn’t do them because it caused her shoulder pain to worsen. When I asked what exercises she was doing at home, she told me that she wasn’t doing anything. The reason for this is because she didn’t know what exercises were safe for her shoulders, and what would be too much pressure on her joints.
I began by explaining how important it is for someone recovering from shoulder injury or surgery to maintain their range of motion in order to stay healthy and prevent future injury. I then explained that I offer physiotherapy at home services, so they don’t have to miss any more time than they need to due to their injury.
Things to consider when returning back to pressing exercises
There are a few things you should consider before returning back to pressing exercises after experiencing shoulder pain. Firstly, you should examine your technique and try to avoid any specific movements that may have caused your pain in the first place. Secondly, it is important for you to work on strengthening your scapular stabilizers and rotator cuff muscles because they will help protect your shoulder joint from further injury. Thirdly, it is important that you stretch out tight muscles before doing any exercise as they will increase your risk of injury. Lastly, it is important that you consult with a physiotherapist if any part of these instructions don’t make sense or if you are unsure about what exercises might be safe for you.
