About the Workshop
The Shoulder Rehab Blueprint for Pain-Free Overhead Positions
In this workshop, we’ll dive into the often overlooked mechanics behind shoulder dysfunction in overhead pressing. While many clinicians treat impingement and bursitis as isolated conditions, this session challenges that view by tracing the root causes to faulty ribcage positioning, limited shoulder flexion, poor scapular mechanics, and compensatory movement patterns that ripple through the entire kinetic chain.
Backed by over 20 years of combined clinical and movement expertise, this session gives therapists a new lens to view stubborn shoulder pain, one that connects soft tissue dysfunction, rib positioning, and neuromuscular control. Attendees will walk away with an evidence-informed rehab flow that integrates manual therapy, breathing drills, and functional strength exercises for long-lasting change, not just temporary relief.
