This is quickly becoming my favorite channel. It’s a wonderful service you provide to address various issues people have with their bodies. movement is so important to reduce pain and to maintain mobility. Thank you for doing what you do!!
Thank you for your helpful videos! I am over three years into a frozen shoulder recovery and still have a tiny bit of residual restriction in mobility. I appreciate your holistic and relational approach very much. I especially love the "playful" shoulder videos where you use a clipboard, glass and a stick, as well as the TMJ jaw sliding video. I am grateful for the reminder to be present in the moment and to move with body-mind awareness. Namaste.
Yes! I am going to do this with my 81 year old mother! For decades she has dealt with the same issues as me. She can definitely sit and do these motions as she also recovers from a 14 day hospital stay from covid and a very slow recovery. Mom and daughter doing therapy together, at home. 💙
Hello Taro, a practical suggestion in regards to MrGT complaint about filler sentences - It could help if you time stamp chapters (wrist, shoulder, pelvis, etc) on your time line so that viewers can quickly scan and decide if the exercise would be a helpful addition to their personal routine. BTW, I found your Stir the Pot exercise using broomstick a helpful antidote to prolonged sitting. Thank You
Great recommendation. This research will especially help me in playing tennis where these conscious movements are extremely important and a necessary constant. Sincere thanks for this presentation!
Super helpful - as always!! As I am mainly looking for helpful information from TH-cam, I have recently tried to put the subtitles on - and put the video's rolling-speed to 1,5X. It has seem to been fun and effective! 💖
I am a tennis player who suffers from shoulder impingement when I serve and hit overheads. This exercise may help me be aware how I can incorporate other body parts while doing these type of swings, to lesson the stress on my shoulder. Thanks
This is great to do the morning after a certain vaccine. Last time I did push ups, and that was a mistake. Like squats for the peanut butter shot 😩. Anyhow, I'm older now and this is better for easing this lump in my arm. 😉 Thank you.
This was very interesting indeed and I can see the connection to physical activities incl. martial arts. Thank you for this. However, in my case I strongly believe that my shoulder pain results from the use of the mouse - I am spending more time in front of the PC since COVID. So I cannot see how you would use the mouse by engaging the whole body as you recommend. I would very much appreciate any feedback on this particular context.
in my recent video on carpal tunnel syndrome i talk about how sitting posture influences neck, shoulder, and wrist. that video and my posture videos might help you
Cool. Isn't it the same method of costructing movement they used to practice in inner styles of martial arts like taichi for examples? Chen style and in silk reeling qigong
I have a condition now and then where the muscles around my right shoulder blade becomes painful to any movement. Even not moving it hurts. The muscles feel out of place and irritated. Seems to happen more frequently from sleeping on my side. (Also sending many hours daily on computer.) The only solution I have found recently is several days of acupuncture treatment. But that is not always available immediately. Is there a way to correct this from happening in the future?
You use so much filler sentences it is a little frustrating to watch you. Like repeating things multiple times. Or spending nearly a full minute explaining that you can do this exercise standing or sitting, or you can do it on either side, which is very obvious and doesn't need explaining. This video would be quality content at about 3 minutes long.
thanks for the feedback. yes i agree that i can write scripts and keep it more concise without filler sentences. i just dont do well reading scripts as i dont feel as authentic. However i am slowly making adjustments to improve quality of my contents.
@@TaroIwamoto Hi keep it natural some people are first timers and need to hear the explaining. Don't change what you're doing is great as it is many people love you as you are - like me:-)
@@TaroIwamoto Unfortunately not all of us possess the intelligence to understand the exercise in 3 minutes.Your explanations are detailed and concise.As a teacher I highly recommend your methodology. Many thanks and happy holidays to you and family.Peace

My sternum! I didn’t know my sternum moves too!
that's a wonderful discovery, isn't it?
Same action as Hungarian whip 😂. Strengthens under the arms nicely too.
i just learned something new from you!
Damn! Broke a lampshade and the cat is now scared of me.
oops.. be careful. this exercise is good for improving spatial awareness, which i guess you learned a hard way. i am sorry
@@TaroIwamoto I am a new subscriber with a silly sense of humour. The cat is fine and so is the lampshade (good job I didn’t break it - it’s Tiffany.
@@bettyswallocks6411 you never know, i do lots of silly stuff at home and get yelled at by my wife all the time :)
@@TaroIwamoto Which explains your expertise at soothing a pain in the neck.😳 Please don’t tell her I said that!🙏🏼

I think the length and style is fine. It gives us time to play with the moves while you are talking:-)
