EPISODE SUMMARY:

This week we talk about mid-back muscles and a couple case studies. Dr. Pearson will go over a couple of great stretches to help you with shoulder and neck pains. Next week we will cover lower-back muscles.

ON THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS…

• We will be going over a couple of case studies.
• There are two muscle groups
• This week we will be going over the muscles in the upper body and next week the lower body.
• Mid-back muscles often get elongated and yes, it can be corrected.
• All muscle groups are connected so if one area is off other parts of the body will be off.
• If someone has neck or shoulder pain it can be caused by mid-back muscles not functioning in the proper position.
• One gentleman had front shoulder pain. Dr. Pearson pressed against his scapula and his chest to help straighten his posture. When he lifted his arms again the pain was gone.
• To fix this problem you need to straighten your scapula retractor muscles. Dr. Pearson walks us through a great stretch to help.
• You need to do the stretch every day for at least two weeks.
• Dr. Pearson goes over another case study with a gal who has left-sided neck pain. Another stretch is described to us to help with smaller one sided muscle aches.
