Essential Rotator Cuff Stretches for Pain-Free Shoulders
Stretching the rotator cuff is essential for shoulder health, particularly for activities involving repetitive arm motions. The rotator cuff’s four muscles and tendons stabilize the shoulder and allow diverse arm movements. Stretches like the cross-body stretch improve flexibility, circulation, and reduce tension, aiding in stiffness alleviation and preventing conditions like impingement syndrome. Regular, gentle stretching as part of a broader shoulder program supports optimal function and longevity.
