Pain on Lower Half of Shoulder Blade Can be Relieved

Shoulder pain can occur in a variety of places around the shoulder and almost always muscles are at the root of the problem.

Unhappy muscles cause most pain.  Our goal is to keep our muscles happy.

The following request for help is very specific about the location of the pain: the bottom half of the shoulder blade and the outer side of the shoulder blade near the armpit.  Using a movement with the arm in front of the body makes it worse.

Here is the email:

“I really need your help for my shoulder problems from which I am suffering from past many years.

I am getting pain on my right shoulder, on the lower half of the scapula muscle(Teres minor and major area) of my shoulder. The pain exists at approximate all the time but increases if I repeatedly do an activity (A simple activity like holding a book will aggravate the pain). I can always feel their is a difference between my right shoulder and left shoulder because of the pain.

I have shown to many doctors and had done many tests but they could not come out with any conclusive results. Their advice was just to strengthen my shoulder muscles and to do some physical activity.

Whats the best way to strengthen my shoulder. Will joining gym will be a good option or doing Aerobics .

Please suggest if something better can be done.

Thanks,”

Here is my response:

Raven Fisher – Inspiring People With Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

“Multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence.”

I received some email from Raven Fisher who has MS.  Raven is a remarkable woman who is proactive in her care.  She does things for herself.  She is an inspiration!  And that is her message.

People write to me and basically say “I feel better now because of something that you said.”  Everyones’ words are different but their message is similar.  Something that I said made a difference for them–it helped them feel better.

The reason it worked is because THEY worked!

They did something to help their smart body feel better.  I only provided a little bit of information that they needed.

When Raven first contacted me, she told me that my carpal tunnel pain relief information was helping her even though she did not have carpal tunnel syndrome–she had MS.

How could this be?  It is because each part of your body is attached to every other part.

I asked Raven if I could share parts of her following emails with you and she graciously said Yes.

Here is her story.

“Four years ago when I was diagnosed with MS I also got the terrifying news that my life expectancy is 2yrs.  Knowing what is actually wrong with me I immediately thought no way, who said so?  God did not say it so I don’t believe it!  I was in a wheelchair, could not walk, talk properly, read a book, focus on touching things.  My brain told me to pick up that pen but my body did not want to.  I did not know when ever my bladder and colon wanted to work, it always came as a surprise.  Even when I was in public, embarassing, but hey, I blamed it on Continue reading “Raven Fisher – Inspiring People With Multiple Sclerosis (MS)”

MS – 4 Helpful Therapies for People with Multiple Sclerosis and other Neurological Disorders

If you have multiple sclerosis or a similar neurological disorder, here are some potentially beneficial treatments.  Except for the first one, tapping, all of these are self-help techniques.  You’ll find out where I get these crazy ideas from at the end of the article.

Tapping:  Tapping on the spine will stimulate the nerves and tissues around the spine.  This is a good thing.  It will get more blood flow into the area to carry nutrients to your spine.  Could you ask a loved one or a friend to tap with their finger pads the length of your spine (but not on the end of the tailbone)?  This tapping would last for about 5 minutes each time and ideally be at least once each day.

Pouncing:  You can  “pound” your thighs yourself.  The meaty part of the thigh on the tops and sides when you are seated Continue reading “MS – 4 Helpful Therapies for People with Multiple Sclerosis and other Neurological Disorders”
