Instructions

Step 1: Use your good arm to lift your “bad” arm onto a breast-high shelf.

Step 2: Open your armpit by slightly bending your knees. Deepen your knee bend slightly, gently stretching the armpit, and then straighten. Hold this position for 10 seconds.

Step 3: With each knee bend, stretch a little further, but don’t force it.

Important Tip: Do 10 reps of 2 sets each twice daily. Avoid jerking of the body as it might lead to further frozen shoulder pain.
