Workshop
description:
The shoulder rests on the thorax and hangs from the neck. Most long-term shoulder dysfunctions need to consider all three elements in the “cure.” In this course, we combine techniques from the breathing workshop and the arm workshop to take a comprehensive look at how to resolve malalignment of the shoulder complex balanced in our upright posture.
Techniques include:
1. Rib cage tilts and repositioning
2. Scalenes and head-neck positioning
3. Shoulder pivots and the balance between stability and mobility in the shoulder
4. The shoulder ‘X’ – the underlying muscles that create shoulder
stability
