Tight shoulders? Limited overhead movement? 👀

Shoulder stiffness is common, especially if you sit a lot, work at a desk, lift weights, or have had previous injuries. Improving shoulder mobility can help reduce pain, improve posture, and make everyday movements easier.

Try these exercises to help increase shoulder mobility and keep your shoulders moving the way they should.

At Emery Physical Therapy, we often combine mobility work with strengthening to help patients recover and move better.

Better mobility → better movement.
