Posture Information | Pain Between Shoulder Blades

People experiencing pain between shoulder blades has become more common with frequent computer use. That burning, achy pain that is relieved somewhat by sitting up straight has become regular occurrence in the workplace.

So how does it start? What make that pain likely to show up with daily activities that you're doing?

If you guessed "posture," you're on the right track. The muscles that go from your shoulder blades to the middle of your back are called the rhomboids. These muscles are under a lot of stress when your posture isn't good.

After an extended period of bad posture (like months or years), these muscles will get longer. The longer the muscle gets, usually the weaker it gets. However, this doesn't stop you from performing all of the normal work you've got to get done in a day.

Your symptom usually shows up as pain between shoulder blades, and it can be prevented. While chiropractic intervention may be needed to get the joints of your mid back spine moving correctly again, much of this problem can be prevented by doing things to stretch the chest muscles and strengthen the muscles that help you maintain your sitting posture.

By increasing the strength of the muscle, they will become shorter and more able to hold the shoulder blades in place. Taking the steps to improve your posture, particularly the rhomboid muscles, will help alleviate your pain between the shoulder blades.

"Got Great Results In Just 2 Weeks!"

Having great success using the lower back exercises from Dr. Cordova's Posture Confidence DVD, I didn't hesitate to try her exercises for the neck.

I wasn't disappointed! After 2 weeks, my neck and shoulders began to feel and look better. I also found the ebook very informative and easy to read. It's a good reference to have!

Thank you!

Pain Relief From Neck And Back Problems "With Little Effort"!

"Dr. Cordova, I have just read your book and find it to be very 'eye opening'.

My job typically has long hours and requires international air travel. Both require that I sit in the same position for long periods of time. Without even knowing what happened, I found that my shoulders were rounding, my neck would ache, my head would ache, and my back felt like it was “going out”. On the airplane, I struggle for comfort and work myself into remarkable positions.

After reading your book, I find that -- with very little effort -- I can perform your recommended exercises and relieve this pain. I thought that the pain resulting from these activities was something I had to live with. Your book has taught me that this is not true.

Thank you very much for revealing this wisdom. I feel better already."
