Myofascial self-massage for impingement syndrome
Shortened, hardened muscles and fascial adhesions should be loosened up first. In the following impingement shoulder exercises, we will show you how to relax the muscles that pull your shoulder girdle into a suboptimal position.
Impingement syndrome exercise: loosens up the tense latissimus dorsi muscle
Place the BLACKROLL® on the floor and lie on your side with your chest on the roll. Stretch the lower arm forward and upward. Vary placement of the arm so that you have no pain in the shoulder.
Impingement syndrome exercise: loosens tense deltoid muscles
Stand sideways with the affected shoulder to the wall. Your arm should hang down and is relaxed. Place the MINI on the side of your upper arm.
Releasing deep muscle tension associated with impingement syndrome
After myofascial self-massage, activate your deeper fascial adhesions using the BLACKROLL® TRIGGER TMX®. Thanks to the targeted pressure, you can release deep tension in the area in and around your shoulder muscles.
Impingement trigger exercise: relieves tense front shoulders
Stand facing the wall and position the trigger over a painful point on your front shoulder. Lean forward and apply light pressure.
Mobilization and stretching exercises for impingement syndrome
If you have bad posture, your shoulders are in the wrong position. This increases the risk that you may develop a shoulder impingement syndrome. You can improve mobility and position of your shoulder with the following exercises.
Shoulder impingement exercise: stretches your chest muscles
Stand upright in front of the wall and place the BLACKROLL® on the wall at a 120° angle from your torso. If a position is painful for you, vary the height of the roll. Press your hand firmly on the BLACKROLL® and turn in the opposite direction to stretch your chest.
Shoulder impingement exercise: opens up your ribcage
Place the BLACKROLL® on the floor and get down on all fours. Support yourself on the roll with your hands. Bring your head toward the floor and push your buttocks back.
Shoulder impingement exercise: stretches your chest muscles
Lie down on your stomach and lie with one side of your chest on the edge of the roll. Make sure that the roll is at the top of your chest.
Activation and strengthening exercises for impingement syndrome
We want to activate part of the rotator cuff through targeted exercises. The humeral head should be brought into a position in which you do not feel any pain. These impingement syndrome exercises for at home are also ideal for upright posture. As with all impingement exercises, it is important that you keep your shoulders low.
Impingement syndrome exercise: activates your external hip rotators
Stand upright and shoulder width apart. Hold your elbows close to your body and turn your palms toward the ceiling. Hold the MULTI BAND and add some pretension by pulling it outwards in the starting position.
Impingement syndrome exercise: activates your shoulder blades
Stand upright in front of a wall and place a BLACKROLL® at the level of your neck. Press the BLACKROLL® firmly against the wall with your wrists and let your shoulder blades slide forward and down.
Impingement syndrome exercise: activates your back shoulder area
Attach the MULTI BAND in front of you at waist level and grab one of the loops. With your leg on the same side, get down on one knee, placing the knee directly below the hip. Activate your core and glutes.
Your shoulder joint hurts
