Here’s Dr. Alfie demonstrating how to use a lacrosse ball to release tension from tight and sore rotator cuff muscles.
Tips:
- Apply tolerable pressure on areas for 30-60 seconds,
- It is meant to be sore: If it’s not sore, you’re on the wrong spot. If it’s too sore, you’re on the wrong spot.
- Increase the circumference of the circle you trace with your hand/elbow to change the intensity and direction of the pressure.
- Suggested frequency:
- Daily – 1 week,
- Alternating days – 1 week,
- Every 3-4 days – 1 week,
- As needed.
