Boosting Shoulder Mobility: Restoring External Rotation in the Shoulder

The Importance of Shoulder Mobility

Shoulder mobility plays a crucial role in our day-to-day activities, especially for individuals involved in physically demanding professions or sports. However, issues with shoulder mobility, particularly external rotation, can significantly impact our overall function and quality of life.

Understanding External Rotation

External rotation refers to the rotational movement of the arm away from the body, allowing us to perform various tasks such as reaching, lifting, and throwing with ease. When external rotation in the shoulder is limited or restricted, it can lead to discomfort, pain, and difficulty in performing basic movements.
