What’s the best treatment for shoulder pain?
Shoulder massage focuses on the muscles located around the shoulder region. The shoulder muscles consist of the rotator cuff, upper trapezius and rhomboids. There are many techniques commonly used during a shoulder massage including STR, MET, kneading, effleurage and skin rolling. A shoulder massage effectively reduces pain, stress, tension and tightness in the shoulder muscles. A shoulder massage increases the temperature of muscles to improve blood circulation. Our sports massage therapist at Lucas Massage Therapy uses shoulder massage to help reduce pain, tension and tightness of the muscles and shoulder pain relief.
