- Poor posture, rounded and pronated shoulders, and poor biomechanics of the shoulder joint causes this painful condition. These 2 exercises will help in opening the compression and narrowing of the joint space to help take pressure off the bursa.
My shoulder was so painful, I cried myself to sleep every night. I did the first evercise and my pain was gone in 2 days! No more pain! Thank you so, so much! You're a magician!
He is a saint 😇🙏💜👍
that’s all it took? I wish it would work for me. I can’t really do it. It’s too painful.
This was the best Christmas present I have ever received. My upper arm became painful 6 days before Christmas. I found this video 4 days later and now am almost pain-free. Thank you, Dr. Mandel.
these days it's very hard to find a knowledgeable caring physician,i must admit that DR. Mandell is among the few that not only is caring but he is spending his precious time educating the viewers on different medical issues.thanks doc,wish i were living in Miami where you practice.cheers John A
incredible, after 5 years of pain and many attempts to fix, this worked. You Sir are a fine human being...thank you for you.
hello michael how you doing ? Are you fine now, is your shoulder pain gone away ? Leave a reply it'll be really helpful
Barbering for over 24 years and for the past 2 months I couldn't sleep well at night because of my shoulder pain. I tried your excersizes and noticed the pain deminishing right away! I will stick to them and hopefully this will do the trick! Thank you so very much!
Thanks so much Dr Mandell for not only showing two exercises to reduce the pain of shoulder bursitis, but also explaining quite clearly what actually causes the pain. I really thought that I would be stuck with this pain for months, but after following your advice for 2 days I'm already feeling much better and virtually pain free.
Past 15 days am suffering severe pain from neck to elbow... I got solution here... thank u so much Dr. Mandell.
If people could just see how amazing your advice is...you pulled me out of a deep depression by giving me the simple but serious facts and helping me thru the healing and pain. Thank you. You and you alone pretty much saved me from my terrible condition. Your diagnosis, the exercises, and simple caring really have blown me away.. You are a good man and a great Dr. Bless you. I am well and will pass what you have done for me, onward.
This gentleman has a kind demeanor.
Thanks Dr Mandell, You've saved my career. I've seen various physiotherapists in the past year and have been given, what looks to be, the wrong exercise treatment plan. Within 10 minutes of doing these 2 simple exercises I can now raise my arm above my shoulder. Can't thank you enough for this FREE advice, going to check out your other videos.
I did 2 sets of the first exercise and immediately felt a lessening of pain. I've been in pain for 5 years now. Thanks you so much
5 years is a long time
Genes continue your exercise it will help you take time but it will work
5 years? Guys pay more attention for that shit, we dont want a tear. I'm having shoulders problems too, but i know that i'll solve it, and i hope you guys do the same!

I had shoulder pain almost 2 months Doctor,this exercise relived my shoulder pain in 2 days .Million Thanks 🙏🙏
How do you feel now? Are you out of pain 100%
How is the pain now?
Wow! You rock Doc! Thankyou so much for caring enough to make free TH-cam videos. I was having a horrible week with my shoulder bursitis. The first exercise alone, brought me great relief. Was feeling depressed that my workouts had come to a stand still. Feeling like I'm on my way back up, and on the mend again, thanks to you Dr. Mandell :D
Good Job Rockin. Hope you continue to feel better. Good Night
Bought a resistance band, I have been doing the exercise for 2 hours and I feel incredible relief. Have been having pain for 2 years already. Unbelievably effective. Thanks dr! I owe you big time.
I started Dr. Mandell's exercises yesterday and and am already 95% better feeling in my shoulders! Thank You very kindly Dr. Mandell.
After watching 30 other videos ( not one said to do your motion) all I can say is " Thank you so much!"
Thanks to you Dr. Mandell I finally understand what's going on with my shoulder - thanks a million.
I am up now 12:45 am trying your exercises because the pain in my left shoulder won't allow me to sleep.
I realize I sit at the computer a lot (adjunct professor and writer of books). I also slump using my cellular and tablet (sometimes merely sitting up in bed watching T.V.) as I use these devices.
I use to always carry a heavy duffle bag mainly on this shoulder to and from work.
This pain is recent, but already from just a few minutes I feel like I can some rest.
Thank God for leading me to your video. I have a set of 3 pound weights I can use as per the 2nd exercise demonstrated in this video.
Thank you for caring to help others.
Salute!
My physiotherapists never told me about this type of exercise!!! 🤔🤔🤔 I found this exercise by myself and it helps a lot. Now, I proove it that I do the right exercise.. Thanks so much, doctor 🥰😘👍🙏
I had to go to the emergency room last night because of my excruciating shoulder pain...did not know I had bursitis until the doc examined me. These exercises have helped so much today! Thank you!
Dr. Mandel...how do you do it?! Your information and exercises and holistic actions are far and away much more helpful and successful than almost all of the others on TH-cam!! My shoulder has been hurting and aching for weeks. I tried some exercises from other videos, but after I did the few you showed here, I felt immediate relief! Amazing. Thank You!
I was ejected threw a car windshield due to a drunk driver... started lifting weights and put on 17 inch arms.. now after 3 years of lifting I have constant snaps and cracks in both shoulders... inflammation.. not serious pain. Did EXACTLY the shoulders back thing! And feel so much relief!!! Thank you and god bless you!!! (God definitely was with me) =) Pray 4 healing ppl!!
Thank you doc!! Been suffering for 3 years with bursitis in both! This simple first exercise is giving me relief. Finally!
Great stuff! I have a congenital acromium deformity. Together with my shoulders rotating forward caused a big problem years ago (before TH-cam). It's acting up again. This explains exactly what's happening and why the exercises work. Big thanks.
As a practitioner of Archery and coach, this information is very helpful for those of us who may have shoulder problems. Thank you Dr. Mandel 😇🙏🏹👍
this actually really helped - just after one time - thank you! ive had shoulder bursitis/impingement for almost 2 years now - ive even had teh cortisol shots which helped for only 2 months. Now i have terrible pain, and this seemed to have alleviate a lot of it.
WOW!! I wish I would have found you a year ago! I did this just one time and I could feel the improvement right away. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Of all the exercises for shoulder problems by so called experts (and I tried most of them for no result) this is the only one that fixed the intense pain in my shouder. Huge respect for Dr Mandell he really knows what he is talking about.
Amazing release and blood circulation took place after 5 minutes of the shoulders back and down motion. Your stretches and exercises are helping significantly and quickly.
Excellent!
That explained things better than 5 doctors and lots of money. Thank you kind sir.
I got instant relief from my shoulder pain by doing the first exercise! I had a shoulder dislocation over 40 years ago and have always guarded my shoulder, in other words, didn't use it much and have been very protective of it. Over the past 10 years the pain has gotten chronic and has started to really get me down. I have been to chiropractors for treatment, sought out massage therapy which helps a bit but doesn't last. Lately, I have been trying different exercises that help, and have been praying I would find one that would help; now I did! I found the magic one that I have been looking for, it takes the pain away instantly; I can't believe it!!! Thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much, Dr Mandell!!!
You're a miracle worker. In the middle of changing my health insurance and my shoulder acted up. In between doctors so I was waiting. Found your video tried the exercises and I am getting relief. Thank you thank you.
Still keeping the appointment for next week.
Best treatment I’ve heard yet thank you.
Thank you!
My shoulder pain disappeared almost immediately after doing the two exercises!
As a hygienist, I thrive on educating people on their teeth. I absolutely appreciate the way you talk simply and clearly. I look forward to practicing these techniques!
I will try this sounds good, I have suffered pain in my shoulder from last year just now I been told today that it is
Brusitis. Thanks.
This is great, I normally do alot of work on my rear delts and external rotators but i still get flare ups of shoulder bursitis. I didnt realise how internally rotated my shoulders are despite having strong external rotators. What I needed was exercises to improve shoulder flexibility and decompress the shoulder joint. Extremely helpful.
By far the best advice i have found for this type of problem. Almost instant relief with the shoulders back and into back pocket. Mahalo
Your workouts are challenging, but in the best way possible. Loving the results!
I want to thank you so much! Have experienced pain deep inside my shoulder four weeks. Tried different rehab exercises from TH-cam with little result. 2 days white your exercise and the pain is almost completely gone.
Something seemingly so simple, thank you for your videos they have improved my quality of life so much!
This just changed my life!! I have had the WORST time dealing with this. Just tried these and already feel SO AMAZING! Thank youuuu
Only one set of exercise really helped me relieve my pain having for 2 months. Thank God. God bless Dr Mandell
This is a description of my problem for others with internal shoulder pain. I am a commercial fisherman with limited resources. While fishing I started throwing my gear out past where I normally do. Also been looking down at my phone a lot while on shore. One or both of these things caused my shoulder to be in very severe pain. Located inside the joint and up my neck but mostly in the shoulder. Scared to death after two weeks with no recovery. Called My friend who has had lots of surgery for shoulder and rib issues to ask her about my pain. (We share a similar chest deformity where bone pushes out where collarbone meets) She said it was likely my neck. Which let me to this channel, after watching about ten videos. I wasn't able to find my exact problem in those videos so I did a few of the exercises the doctor talked about. One night something I did worked, being I did so many different things I had no idea what helped. As the days went I started trying one exercise at a time making the pain only worse. Built a neck brace from clothing to sleep that kinda helped. As I went back to the videos I noticed the good doc has a insane amount of videos. So I temporarily gave up and went to the doctor. Made a journal of my issues as recommended in a video that I gave to my doctor. Because I am limited on money i only asked for meds to help with the pain.(no opioids, drug abuse history) the doctor gave me a refill on meds I already get but stopped taking last year. (Gabapentin 300mg, IB 800mg, and Amitripryline 75mg) now desperate thinking my personal doc just pushed me away, probably for good reasons. I came back to this channel and started watching again. This time I also wrote a very short message in the commits with vague descriptions of my problem. Asking the doctor or anyone else that could give me help finding a video in this channel about my shoulder. Didn't really expect a reply. The doctor has already done so much making these videos for us and I thought I'd just sound lazy or retarded not being able to locate the video. I knew he already made something in his vast library. Even though the video was older where I posted my question I did recv a reply saying to check bursitis. Bingo there was my pain, now with a name and a healthy way of dealing with it along with a possible cause.
Guess what I'm saying to everyone. Don't give up, keep watching and digging for help. It's all here you just have to be patient. Subscribe and like before you commit and be sure your message is very clear and to the point. Don't expect a consultation in a chat. Be respectful of people's time and keep watching. Use key words with motivationaldoc in your search. Not only will you find your specific problem. You can also find dr orders about bad habits (so to speak) leading to the problem. The type of foods you should eat and exercises to do. Share the video too... it helped another person I knew when they followed the link I gave on FB.
Make it a great day!
Hi Andy, thank you for the time and heart you've written. You are a blessing to many of the listeners out there. I am working on my website where I can bring people like you together to help educate the world. Thank you. Dr M
motivationaldoc ive been having this problem for 7 months now and its killing my workouts. shoulder enlpin or any of these causes. its a nightmare
Hope your better now you sound like such a caring thoughtful person
Thanks so much. I tried it while watching, and I can already feel pain relief. I'll be icing and following these steps from now on. You're God sent 💪💪💪
Doc you are blessing. Since doing these exercises has helped my shoulder tremendously
Love your page! My shoulders been healing and getting stronger thanks to you. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DOC
This is the best advise for my shoulder I have ever taken . I did not want to have an injection. Thank you sooooo much.
BIG THANKS DOC AND BLESSINGS . WATCHED A FEW OF YOUR VIDEOS AND PLAN TO KEEP LEARNING. BEEN SLEEPING ON THE SIDE FOR A LONG TIME AND HAVE HAD AND HAVE BURSITIS AND TENDONITIS. BEEN LEARNING TO SLEEP MORE ON MY BACK. THANKS ...Paul
Many muchos. These two simple articulations have helped immensely as I prepare to undergo a procedure next week to replace my right hip due to a botched hack job a surgeon did to repair a broken femur.
I have to wait 3 months post-op b4 the surgeon can perform a procedure on my left shoulder rotator and the bursitis discovered in an ultra sound.
Cannot believe that shoulder surgeons do not instruct patients in this simple technique to greatly reduce or eliminate pain.
Buy yourself a wheat grass shot, on me.
I wish you lots of luck my friend
Thanks for posting Doc. About two weeks ago I went to the clinic and the doctor said I have bursitis. I was told to do bent over arm swings with crossing and circles 3 times a day . I feel I need something more. I will try this work out for two weeks to see the out come. I will post my results. Thanks again.
Great vid and explanation! For those dealing with shoulder bursitis, you can hold onto a light dumbbell on each hand when performing the first exercise. It adds a little more pull straight down and "into your pocket" as doc says!
Great thankful appreciation to Dr. Mandell:
I have done exactly as your instructions. I would like to share to public viewers that I myself can be health-career but I could not care for the others, unpaid because they do not trust me. I hope patients should trust you as I do.
Thank you Duc. God Bless
Thank You! I have a pinched nerve in my shoulder , this absolutely helped me! Along with darn sciatic pain! Ugh
i told mu doctor about my shoulder and he ignored it. thanks for sharing your knowledge. my shoulder been hurting for over 2 months now. i watched and did the stretching at the same time and i can already feel the difference. thank you once again
😊😊😊I'm happy for u.
Thank you Dr. I Have been suffering with shoulder pains Both Sides for past few years due to accidents. It has been impossible for me on most days to even move let alone try to be functional. All of the previous medical "experts" have either ignored me, or just gave me more drugs to live with the pains.
I do believe these exercises will be able to help me -With Out all of the drugs.
Thank You again.
A. :-)
The best advice was don't do an exercise if you have pain. I was doing other exercises causing pain. Thanks Doc. These exercises are working. Thank you.
I am a very skeptical person, but this truly helped me find a little relief with a bursitis flair up. My PT has not be helpful in relieving acute pain, so I am so grateful to find this. Definitely worth a try for anyone with shoulder tendonitis/bursitis
Just been diagnosed with Bursitis following 2 x ultrasounds and await an MRI result. I have had pain for 3 months and at times it is crippling. On the MRI slab yesterday was the first time i had laid flat on a hard surface for months. The pain was so bad I had to halt the MRI and was unable to get off the scan bed, they had to help me up whilst the pain continued. The pain was building over the course of about 10 minutes at which it became unbearable. My shoulders and upper torso were going into a spasm as I tried to lay still. I was told they had enough images and I await the result. As a 50+ year old I have never experienced pain like it and I have suffered a number of broken bones and other trauma's.
I'm hoping that the MRI results will give me a definitive diagnosis then I can start to work on getting back on track. These exercises seem simple enough and I even tried them whilst watching the vid. Liked so i can find it again. 👍
Dr. Mandell you know your stuff!!! I use your videos daily. Thanks.
I'm going to try these for my left shoulder. I enjoy your video's thank you so much !
I just did something to my shoulder 2 days ago. Just putting my shoulders back as you indicated helps with the pain. I put my shoulder in full-time rest for 1day and am slowly, very slowly incorporating pain relief methods. Thanks for your advice. Bless you
I’m so glad I found this and the Dr
10 out 10 Dr Alan 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I didn't get a doctors opinion but I was in so much pain for days I couldn't even dress myself and I have a high pain threshold my friend was telling me about her shoulder and she said it could be bursitis so I u tubed and you came up so I did everything you said I felt a reduction in pain by the end of day and a week later I am feeling SOOOO much better everyday Thank You 😊 💪🏼 Peta
How is your shoulder feeling now
Thank you for sharing this information freely. I appreciate your concise explanations, they help me understand better what is happening in the shoulder joint. Thank you for addressing posture as a possible relief for the pain. -Tessa
I've had it in both shoulders for 15 years and it's only just been diagnosed. I'm only 39. Now I have to go down the rabbit hole of NHS treatment.
When I do exercise 1, my scaps start to spasm and I get very strong pins and needles in my hands.
Couldn't lift my left arm above my waist without sharp pain emanating from my shoulder to my elbow. Had to use my other hand to lift the arm and relax the arm completely when I did this in order to lift it. Once my left arm was above my shoulder there was no pain, and I could move it around freely. It was severely limiting my mobility... :-(
Pain is gone today...I can't believe it! I've been doing your exercise as often as possible during the day, and at night, along with Aspercreme and ice on the area in the A.M. The only thing left is a disconcerting clicking noise, emanating from the left shoulder area, when I move my left arm around alot, particularly when I try to move it behind my back. Feels like bone moving across bone. Can't thank you enough for your wonderful video, it's been a G-D-send!!! :-D
Did this twice today and WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Thank you Doctor!!!!
Thank you so very much! This is to exercise very helpful, my shoulder is getting better very fast😊
I just wanted to say thank you I drive trucks for a living and I have to unload your advice is noted. I will be using your advice for my shoulder
Your videos are exactly what I needed to start and make my day great. Thank you
Awesome Dr. Thank you so much .. I have this problem and it has been a year .. been through few physio sessions but achieved zero results.. I will try these valuable exercises . GOD bless 🙏💖
Thank you Dr. Mandel. You are very deligent and so helpful as you continue to and the most recent exercises and approaches to shoulder pain. Thank you again!
Dear Dr. Mandell explaing how your palms should face forward wast he most helpful advice i have ever gotten about my poor posture THANKS SO MUCH
Good job😊
Amazing!! My shoulders have been miserable for years. Recently they've been acting up. I tried this method andvonly after 3 times I already feel the difference and it is Great. Wonderful job, Thanks Doc. Keep em coming..
Thanks, I will start right now! I was doing very well practicing calishtenics, improving everyday.. and this injury changed it all, it really restricts the force on me... ok, so I will putting in practice and give feedback, many thanks.
I just started and feel better Immediately, Thanks You Dr Mandell
This guy knows what he's talking about!!
sporky3333 b
I would hope so!
turning your hands to face up. Best advice ever!!!!
Sir thank you. I woke up in agony. Just the first exercise brought relief. I could cry.🌺 I have a referral to ortho, but I'm doing what you say til I can get in. Again, just, thank you. 🌺
I spent yesterday morning in urgent care,was given pain shot,heating pad.I sat up three nights with my husband neck brace,felt like my neck was broke. The pain was shooting up in my head,my shoulder bulge was so big 😭😭😭😖
Gonna try this also,thank you. I'm still in pain 🤷♀️
Thanks This makes so much sense and immediately makes a difference. I realized that I was spending 10 - 12 hours/day with my shoulders rotated forward at a computer keyboard or driving. Not a good thing to do to my body. Bless you.
Make sure you strengthen your rhomboids and stretch the pecs/chest muscles.
Thx. Doc. Will do.
you just cured me.....wow....i've been in pain for month....bench press hurt shoulder press hurt....the pain...omg......i just did your exercise pushing down into the pocket i felt and heard a pop and lengthen.....WOW WOW WOW.
Nice to hear it!
I'll continue to use the two methods as its now sore from being out of place for almost 2 months inflamed I imagine. Will warm up using these two methods as well before working out. But the nerve wrecking pain I use to get is gone very relieved as its been worrying me sick.
Thanks Dr for your valuable information! Greetings from a South African....stay blessed!
After two months of extreme pain, I finally visited my GP, who referred me for an X-ray and ultrasound. Bursitis was the diagnosis. I don't want a cortisone jab without trying less invasive methods. I will try these excersizes and report back. I'm getting to the end of my tether with this.
Ant Corke I just had my cortisone injection earlier today for the same diagnosis. It was very inflamed and been suffering with constant pain daily for 6 years now. I was worried that the injection would be extremely painful but in fact l was very surprised to find that it wasn't painful and straight away l felt coolness of the arm as soon as the cortisone started to go down my arm. They did say it would be painful once the anaesthesia wears off, it's been 8 hours and still waiting for that pain hehe
Ant Corke, did it help?
Damn It Ant Corke get back to us!
So did they help?
@@marciawelch6975 mine still bad. Physiotherapy and dodgy thai massages are the only thing keeping me going. Also lots of neck stretches
Thanks for educating me in Layman's terms, Doc. I think a combination of rounded shoulders and heavy bench pressing caused my inflammation. I'll plan on laying off the heavy weights and remind myself to keep my palms facing forward.
That first exorcise gave me immediate relief, ugh... thank you sooooo much 😁
Wonderful. Thank you Doc. With sincere appreciation.
Thank you Dr. Mandell....I just had a MRI of my neck and shoulder..waiting on results... I think I have an impinged nerve in my neck that's causing shoulder and upper arm pain. I do not want surgery, ugh! So I will start doing your exercises, thanks for sharing!
Hope your well. 😊
After my shoulder injury refused injections form my pain management Doc, who then sent me the PT....PT showed me the external rotations...I also use shoulder stretching pulleys at home when released from injury! Shoulder pulleys help with the external rotation, you can stretch or work your shoulders with these pulley!! dont forget the doorway stretch can give you the external rotation while pushing your chest forward. I have been subbed to motivationaldoc and athleanx.
Thank you, your explanation is so clear. I will try your exercises as ones given by a physiotherapists made matters worse.
Thank you, Doctor! I was listening to the Rife frequencies for bursistis and doing these exercises. I'm feeling fast relief, thankfully. My husband is a D.C., and I think he's getting weary of my asking for ultrasonic treatment, (unfortunately, I may have waited too long to ask for treatment that would have taken care of the bursitis more quickly), lol.
God Bless you 🙏❤️ Dr. Your the Best 😘
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFO. I HAD A LEFT FROZEN SHOULDER FOR 1 AND 1/2YR. NOW I'M ON MY RIGHT FROZEN SHOULDER (OF COURSE CAUSED BY BURSITIS & IMPINGEMENT OF THE SUPRASPINATUS, AS WELL AS CALCIFICATIONS ON THE HEAD OF THE HUMERUS). FOR SOME REASON THIS SHOULDER IS MUCH WORSE IN PAIN AND RANGE OF MOTION AND HAS TAKEN A LONG TIME IN DEVELOPING AND IS TAKING A LONG TIME IN RECOVERING. I'M NOW INTO 1YR & 2 MOS. WITH VERY LITTLE PROGRESS, THEREFORE I CAN PREDICT THAT I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO AND THAT IT MIGHT TAKE 2YRS.
YOUR VIDEOS W/ SELF MASSAGE, EXERCISES & STRETCHES HAVE HELPED TO KEEP THE MOBILITY AND LESSEN THE PAIN.
Correct your pronation/rounding of the shoulder. Mostly all bursitis is directly related to pronated shoulders. Strengthen rhomboids/retractors and stretch the chest
THNX A LOT AGAIN!!! I'LL DEFINITELY DO THAT. AND YES, FOR A SEVERAL YRS I SPENT HRS ON COMPUTER. HOWEVER, MY POSTURE IS GOOD BEC I'VE ALWAYS EXERCISED AND DO YOGA.
GOD BLESS YOU AND THNX FOR TAKING THE TIME TO ADVISE ME.
The first stretch that you demonstrated has helped me avoid going to my Dr. for another steroid injection. My left shoulder had gotten so bad that I could not lift my arm at all without severe pain. Recently in my right shoulder, I felt that the same thing was happening. Once I started to rotate my palms out and stretch, I felt relief within a few hours. Bursitis is no joke, Thank you for the video, hopefully I can be pain free from now on.
Hope you're well. Give it some time for healing.
I'm a sloucher, that's why I think i got this problem, had 2 cortisone injections i try this thanks doc
Very interesting take on this persistent irritant. I will work on these techniques. Thanks for posting.
wow! incredible DR. Alan these exercises & all those are really helped for me you' re great as a human being thanks a tons of for loving mind nice.be safe always.
Simple straightforward. A little labored but some of that needs it.
Dr. I need this today. Thanks.😊👌
