Hello Rachael This exercise make you feel so energise, after doing it with a little back pain I had. I always flex them but this pain occurred. Thank you.very much and enjoy the rest of your day.
Thank you so much for this! I have scoliosis and the largest curve is in my mid-thoracic area. I just did this routine for the first time and already feel my shoulder blades moving better. This is a perfect routine for working with one of my biggest problem areas. 🙏🏻
I’ve been having some quite painful shoulder & neck issues through the holidays and just found your special video for this. Wow it’s amazing how much this 1st exercise helped. I’ll definitely include it in my daily Pilates...thank you sooo much Rachel for helping us take such good care of our [older] bodies 👵🏻
Here's is a link to some of my videos targetting this area - have a look and see if any could be of help (don't forget to read the sescription to make sure it's suitable for you) : www.youtube.com/@TheGirlWithThePilatesMat/search?query=Shoulder With thanks! ❤️
Thank you so much Rachael from this 76 yo from Winchelsea, Australia. Initially I did not recognise myself as an over 60 when I found you Seniors 60+, as I am pretty fit, but these exercises reminded me how important it is to do Pilates the correct way. So glad I found you. I love you classes.
This is great - if you had any more longer sessions that focus on shoulder and neck it would be fantastic. I love you Pilates and do one of your videos every day. Dee in Ireland
Hello Dee in Ireland! Lovely to hear from you, I am so glad you're enjoying the pilates sessions. I have made a note on your request for a longer session on shoulder and neck and will add it to my filming list for you. Please bear with me on that though as I am getting lots of requests at the moment so I am filming as much as I can between teaching my live online sessions. Lovely to have you take a video class daily, thank you Dee. Best wishes, Rachel😊
Hello Deirdre, Did you catch my live stream this week ? I added some exercises for you which are for tight shoulders. I think it would be good for you to try them. The video is the Goof Friday one for Tight Hips and Shoulders. Happy Easter!
Rachel, this was FANTASTIC, everything your doing for us feels jus grand! yo9u have a technique that is superior than anyone i've seen. i did have a shoulder issues, but this seems to hit the spot! So completed November 3rd week 12/7.2023, LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND LOVE THESE WORKOUTS♥♥♥♥♥♥ have a blessed day see you on tomorrow's live🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you. I'm a violinist and I have a right rotator cuff injury. Using the bow is excruciating so I'm grateful for any help I can get! Physio cancelled because of covid.
Brilliant exercise for anyone with a shoulder injury. I have rotate cuff injury and do find some shoulder exercises difficult. I follow Rachel advice , to work to my ability and if pain no further. I will be doing the workout at least twice a week. I would recommend this workout to anyone especially those with shoulder problems, also Rachel's 'Let's talk about shoulders' Thanks Rachel ❤😊xx
Thank you for this. I have shoulder problems, enjoy exercise , but find that most other channels just assume that you are fully mobile! I have done a couple of your routines and really loved them. You explain everything so fully that I feel confident in what I am doing. This shoulder sequence is exactly what I need, to keep going. I'm looking forward to trying even more of your workouts. Stay safe, T 🌻 🌼 🌻
Hi Rachel. This has really helped today. Really struggling with upper body strength. Thank you so much. Would love more upper body strength building. Have a great day. ❤️
You're so welcome! Really gla it helped you. I would recommned you do this three times a week to start building strength and then when yo are feeling ready move onto my Upper Body with resistance Band session here: th-cam.com/video/JdO0B4MkhTM/w-d-xo.html Have a lovely day ❤️
Love your videos, the clear explanations, the fact that they’re of differing lengths and that they target different areas. I’m a senior and I so appreciate what you offer. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video!! I’m suffering with a shoulder problem (I’m seeing an osteopath-cum-physio) and these exercises will hopefully really help me in between my sessions!
Thank you for this video. I am in my late 50s and having trouble with stiff shoulders. I looked for exercises to stretch and strengthen this area and this fits the bill exactly! I already feel better after one session so will continue with them regularly. Thanks again.
You are so helpful, you have done more for my knee issues than my physio! Thanks a million🌹I’m sure that this sequence will aid my rotator cuff injuries to heal!💖
Thank you for this great video - it was so simple to follow and after just doing it once this morning, I do feel more movement and ‘freedom’ in my shoulders and neck, which is fantastic!
Hello Ourania, that's really good to hear. I think it would help you to do these exercises three times a week to keep that neck and shoulder stiffness at bay. Look after yourself, Rachel
Yesterday I fell off my bike, onto soft grass, so not hurt except I banged down onto my right shoulder exactly where I had a bad ski-ing injury 13 years ago. Ouch ouch, but not nearly so bad as then when I tore a hole in the tendon....So I tried this amazingly helpful session.Cant do it all with my right arm yet, but hope to be able within a week or so. Am I doing the right thing Rachel? I am 75.
Thank you for your videos. I really like them. You go slow enough for a beginner to follow and pay attention to the breathing. I will keep watching and exercising with you.
Hi, Im 62. Can I do this? I was just worrie about my lower back in your last exercise. I just started Pilates, so I mostly do the senior ones.Enjoying them!
Helloo! So happy I found your videos! And thank you for emphasizing that you don't have to do the stretches perfectly right away! :-) One question I have is about sitting cross legged- I just can't get comfortable sitting that way. Should I work on that or should I just sit in a different comfortable position while doing these exercises? Thanks again! Will definitely be following you!
Fabulous workout.Having Rotate Cuff issues found it a bit difficult in parts, but I am going to stick with it, know my limitations and do each week.😊xx
Hello, I love your videos, really helpful and easy to follow! I have a long standing shoulder issue and have been doing your video for this. There is one exercise though which I find really difficult to do and get right - gliding the shoulder blades to the spine while on all fours. Are there any alternative exercises I could try that achieve a similar effect? Thanks so much!
Ihank y ou very much for the shoulder stretches exercise but i find it difficult as i have a broken wrist that is not healing well maybe Ill find an easy one in time..
As an active teenager, having a shoulder injury has been awful, but your tips have been wonderful!
Thank you so much!
Thanks, my shoulders feel looser and more relaxed after just one session.
Hello Rachael

I love these 15 minutes exercises aimed towards specific body area. Any chance of something to help loosen tight hamstrings sometime soon?

Thank you Rachel. I'm recovering from a shoulder injury and this was just what I needed to follow on from the doc's exercises.
Pilates for scoliosis
Loving using your videos, I felt an immediate relief in shoulder tension after following this one.
