Brent interviews Brian Schiff,

Hi, Brent Abel here, and I'm pleased to bring you this informational
series as an interview I recently did with Brian Schiff on 7 ways to quickly help you

shoulder rotator cuff pain.

next tip...

Tip #3
by Brian Schiff
Avoid raising the arm
overhead in painful ranges of motion unless absolutely necessary.
The rotator cuff gets
compressed when the arm is elevated above 90 degrees and this often
further aggravates the symptoms.
This is problematic
with getting dressed, fastening the seat belt or placing carry-on
baggage in a plane.
Overhead athletes will
simply need to rest for a given period of time to let the inflammation
subside.

"Can I do
damage or inhibit the healing process by too much icing or too much
heat...?"

"Prior to
working with Brian Schiff, I was diagnosed with a left rotator cuff tear and
tendonitis in both shoulders.
After following his rotator cuff training program in therapy, I regained full motion, strength and use of my arms again.
Since I work as a dental hygienist, this was critical in allowing me to work without limitation and pain.
I respected his expertise so much that I decided to hire him for personal training to continue strengthening and prevent a future injury. As a fellow medical professional, I am critical of other medical professionals, but when it comes to fitness training his methods and medical expertise are second to none!"

Cold Compression
Both Brian and I highly
recommend this injury treatment aid for your rotator cuff injury.
These are not inexpensive,
however, they work, plain and simple.
Cold compression therapy
is a well known technique for dramatically reducing inflammation &
swelling of your injured rotator cuff...
Cold plus compression is
much more effective than simply placing a bag of ice on your shoulder.
ColdOne re-freezable cold
therapy compression wraps reduce pain and relieve swelling of soft
tissue injuries caused by sports injury, sprains, muscle tears and post
surgical procedures.
Each cold wrap provides
full cold coverage to the specific muscle and tendon groups for 15 to 20
minutes as recommended by M.D.s and Orthopedic Therapists.
The compression drives the
cold deep into affected areas and controls swelling.
Shoulder
The ColdOne shoulder wrap reduces shoulder pain and swelling caused by
rotator cuff tears, dislocated shoulder and repeatedly stressed shoulder
muscles and joints caused by repetitive overhead activity.
Start the healing process
with your own custom fit ColdOne shoulder wrap.
