So I suppose that would be the forward > section of the rotator cuff. I'm curious to if your physical therapist gave you any rotator cuff drills to strengthen your complete range of motion. There are specific range of motion drills to do with a small 2-3 lb weight. What we do with our athletes is both the drills you've done above and the physical therapy. Something that might work with your range of motion is to go to where it actually hurts, and tapp when in that position. Be sure to have a SUDS done at that position BEFORE the tapping and at the end of the tapping by someone that knows how to verify with energy testing that SUDS. So many people have a " memory " of old trauma, AFTER the trauma is gone. They " think " that because they have a " memory " that the part must still be injured. It's a normal type of thought process. Now that memory can be erased but we choose not to do that. What we do instead is use the memory as a reference point for taking the positive learnings, and for adding in a new behavior generator at that particular point in time so that type of injury NEVER occurs again. Hope these few quickees help. John La Tourrette, Ph.D. Ps. Tapping on the past time lines, the present time lines and the future time lines does work real well. When you tapp out the trauma from your past " as if " you are associated into it as " right now " it is much more effective. When you use future possibilities and from that associated future point you tapp " as if " now, your installation of positive possibilities is immense.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 There were some figure 8 drills in the archives (maybe on the mind mastery original archive) that worked really well for my shoulders. From there I also changed my shoulder exercise routine to have more controlled motions. Dumbell shrugs will sometimes hurt your shoulders because the movement can't always be kept in a narrow range. So now I do shrugs with the smith machine straight bar. That builds those muscles on either side of my neck that seem to keep my shoulders pulled up and in a better natural position. I also do my shoulder presses with a machine so I can set the bar height. I set it so my upper arms (biceps) are parallel to the floor at the starting position and never go below that on the down stroke. Add in the rotator cuff exercises Doc referred to and you are on your way. I use one of those rubber band things to work inner and outer rotators. Those changes have made it so I no longer feel that pressure like my shoulders are going to pop out of the joint when I do things like bench press, dips, or push ups. But those figure eight drills took away the initial pain about two years ago and I was able to get back into working out. Cool stuff. But don't ask me about my knee pain. There are some things with peanut oil DMSO and other solutions in the archives that I haven't understood and gotten down. So I still have knee pain. But if I take enough vitamin C it seems to mostly stay away. But I just reminded myself that I need to work on that. I didn't understand the figure 8 drills and they still worked. Thanks Doc for this resource. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
