🧩 WHAT IF YOUR “AGING SHOULDER” PROBLEM ISN’T STARTING AT YOUR SHOULDER?

— with Alison, BSc Sports Science | Sports Therapist

Shoulder pain feels like it just comes with age — especially after 50. But here’s the thing: pain is just the smoke. The fire might be somewhere else entirely.

We almost always look straight at the shoulder. But what about everything below it?

📱 Think about your day:

- Grip the steering wheel 🚗
​
- Hold your phone for hours 📲
​
- Type, carry bags, cook, open jars 🛒🍳
​
- Same positions, over and over — barely any variety

Research shows just 1 hour of texting can boost upper-arm muscle activity by 1.5–1.9x. Tablet use? Wrists locked at ~38° extension, hour after hour. That adds up.

Your arm isn’t 3 separate parts — it’s ONE connected chain.
Wrist gets stiff → can’t move freely → the job still has to get done. So…

- Elbow twists more
​
- Forearm overworks
​
- Shoulder compensates for the wrist — thousands of times a day

Over weeks, months, years → that compensation becomes pain.

📍 Your shoulder is where you FEEL it. That doesn’t mean it’s where it STARTED.

We spend so much time fixing shoulders… maybe we should check the wrists first? 🔍

🧶 Fascia — the cling film that holds you together

Fascia is that clingy cling-film wrapping every part of you. Ignore it and it dries out, sticks like glue, and turns your body into one stiff grumpy shape 😩

One tight bit can pull from your neck all the way down to your toes. Yep — it’s all connected!

✅ Move it often — it hates being still
✅ Keep hydrated — it gets brittle when dry
✅ Soft tissue work — unsticks all those sticky bits

Keep your cling-film happy and slippery… and you’ll move like you’re supposed to! 🤸‍♀️

Don’t leave it to chance!

💁♀️ Just a little reminder!

As your sports therapist, I really don’t care if you’ve shaved, what underwear you’ve got on, or what size you are.

My only priority is getting you out of pain and moving freely again. No judgement at all – just help. 💛
