- Symptom
- This shoulder pain is often found with tennis players and badminton players. If you look closely at their shoulders, the dominant side slightly extends forward. This indicates that upper arm ligaments of the upper joint, the inner joint, and the lower joint have slackened.
- Tamatare Remedy
- Tamatare Remedy cures this problem by recovering smooth movement of the shoulder joint by the joint alignment and joint force axes coordination techniques as well as by recovering the metabolism efficiency of the muscles in question.
- Details
- The shoulder joint is a socket joint, and is not connected by a ligament. It is supported by the three ligaments mentioned above in the front, and is also supported by the coracohumeral ligament from above. Continuous strong stress on these ligaments degrades the functionality of the axillary cavity—fold within the joint capsule—bringing about pain that occurs when the arm is used strongly at the abduction position. The symptom of this problem resembles "age-forty shoulder (stiff shoulder due to age)", but the cause is a sprain in the shoulder, which is different from an age-forty shoulder.
