Causes<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shoulder injuries are common among Americans.<\/span> <a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4836557\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you work at a workplace where lifting or intense physical labor is needed<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> you are likely to experience shoulder injury at one point or another. Athletes also have the risk of injuries due to excessive and repetitive practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, shoulder injuries are not limited to people involved in physical work. Shoulder pain can also occur even when you work from the comfort of your home. Awkward or unhealthy posture due to sitting for long hours can increase the risk for this kind of injury.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Shoulder pain can also happen during everyday tasks<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> such as cleaning your home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Here are the most common shoulder injuries you might experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shoulder_Sprain\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shoulder Sprain<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A shoulder sprain is also known as a separated shoulder or acromioclavicular joint injury. This sprain occurs when the ligaments that support and stabilize the shoulder stretch. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Direct trauma to the shoulder is one of the causes of shoulder sprain. Examples of this are trauma from a car accident or a sudden fall.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shoulder_Strain\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shoulder Strain<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A shoulder strain occurs when a muscle or tendon stretches for a long period. This happens to people with poor sitting posture. Shoulder strain can also happen to people who are lifting a heavy weight, for example a heavy backpack on your shoulder for a couple of hours or longer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Athletes with repetitive movements experience this as well, especially in tennis and swimming.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shoulder_Tear\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Shoulder Tear<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A shoulder tear injures the soft tissues that allow the joint to move with stability. The tear can be in tendons, muscles, and within the rim of tissues. A small tear may lead to a bigger tear over time if this is not treated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">People who have repetitive motions, such as athletes and workers with heavy physical tasks, are the ones at risk. A shoulder tear can also occur after a sudden fall with arms outstretched.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Yoga_for_Shoulder_Pain\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Benefits of Yoga for Shoulder Pain<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acpjournals.org\/doi\/10.7326\/P17-9039\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Research shows that practicing yoga can<\/span> help with chronic pain<\/a> similar to how physical therapy can<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.

Hold this pose for at least five deep breaths to release stress from your back and shoulders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Pose_Benefits-2\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga Pose Benefits<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When in this pose, your back elongates. A Child\u2019s Pose gives your whole spine a solid stretch. It also rolls your shoulders to get the stretch through the top part of your back and shoulders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eagle_Pose\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Eagle Pose<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As a beginner, you might feel all pretzeled up with this pose but you\u2019ll be hooked when you feel the quality stretch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Start by raising your arms so they are perpendicular to the floor. Then bend at the elbow so your arms are in an L shape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Cross one elbow over the other and start to twist your arms around each other (or hug your arms together). While doing this, press the inside of your palms together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Gently lift your elbows upward and reach your fingers toward the ceiling. For an even greater stretch, roll your neck forward toward your hands. You can do this pose for five to ten deep breaths.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Pose_Benefits-3\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga Pose Benefits<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">One of the nice benefits of this stretch is that it can be done right at your desk. Eagle Pose stretches your neck and shoulders. It also gets to the pesky spot between your shoulder blades that can be hard to stretch out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bridge_Pose\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bridge Pose<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yogabeyondthestudio.com\/blog\/yoga-for-beginners\/yoga-for-lower-back-pain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bridge Pose<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, start by lying flat on your back. Bend your knees, hip-width apart. Then bring your heels back, near your hands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Inhale and slowly and raise your hips upward. At the same time, you are inhaling and lifting your hips, also pushing your shoulder blades together. You can put a yoga block under the lowest point of you back to make this a supported pose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Resist letting your chin from dropping down onto your chest so you don\u2019t cause neck strain. You can do this pose for five to ten breaths for shoulder pain relief.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Pose_Benefits-4\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga Pose Benefits<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This pose allows your shoulders to stretch in another direction opening up the chest and shoulder area. Bridge Pose also stretches the back as you roll your shoulders back.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cross-Body_Shoulder_Pose\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Cross-Body Shoulder Pose<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your shoulder has<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/pain-management\/picture-of-the-shoulder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a04 separate joints<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0with many muscles and tendons working together. One simple yoga stretch you can do even while sitting at your desk at work is the arms across your chest stretch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Start by sitting up with your back straight. Take your right arm and stretch it across your chest with your arm straight and your palm facing backward. Then take your left arm and grab your right arm. Pull your arm towards your body. Hold the stretch for several seconds. Repeat this for five to ten breaths.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Repeat using the opposite arms to stretch both sides.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Pose_Benefits-5\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga Pose Benefits<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As you pull your arm towards you, you pull apart the shoulder blades and at the same time stretch the shoulder muscles. This stretching motion allows tension to release and stretches tired muscles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Puppy_Pose\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Puppy Pose<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In Puppy Pose, you start on all fours on your mat. Place your hips so that they are over your knees and your shoulders over your wrists. Point your toes so that the tops of your feet are flat on the mat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Slowly, exhale and as you do, walk your hands out in front of you. As your hands move further out, lower your chest. Rest your head to your mat. Stretch your arms out in front of you rolling your shoulders forward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Hold this position and take a few breaths. Then walk the hands back up to being on all-fours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Be careful to keep your legs hip-width apart and not wider. Wider legs can put too much-added pressure on your lower back. You can repeat this for five to ten breaths.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">From the Puppy Pose, you can also extend back and go into the Child\u2019s Pose.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yoga_Pose_Benefits-6\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga Pose Benefits<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The benefits of Puppy Pose include a good stretch across the back and spine. This pose helps to open the shoulders and to release tension across the back of the shoulders and neck.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Props_That_Can_Help_with_Shoulder_Pain_Relief\"><\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Props That Can Help with Shoulder Pain Relief<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Yoga for your shoulders does not need grand equipment to be effective.
