The foundation of Diana’s treatment was a comprehensive therapeutic exercise program. We began by improving her shoulder’s range of motion through simple mobility exercises. After a few weeks, Diana was ready to begin strengthening the affected muscles. Using equipment like resistance bands and weights, we guided Diana through targeted exercises that addressed muscular weakness and imbalance. Throughout her program, we also helped Diana improve her overall posture. Like many people, she thought postural improvements were about “sitting up straight.” In reality, she needed to keep her spine aligned as she moved through different postures throughout the day. Because Diana had a desk job, we emphasized the importance of changing her posture regularly by taking quick breaks. Diana began using a timer to remind herself to get up every 30 minutes or so and walk around the office. While it took a little effort on Diana’s part, eventually, her pain receded, and her shoulders were more mobile than they’d been in years. To make sure she didn’t relapse, we provided her with exercises to do at home to keep her upper body strong. Is Your Posture Causing You Pain? Diana learned just how important posture is.
