The Real Cause of Your Shoulder Impingement

The Real Cause of Your Shoulder Impingement

Your shoulder pain isn’t random — it’s from years of chronic impingement. When your scapula is stuck forward and rotated the wrong way, your rotator cuff keeps grinding until the tendon tears. Surgery just cuts bone and reattaches tendons, but it never solves the root cause. The only real fix is retraining how your shoulder moves. It takes work, but if you do it, you can finally stop living in pain.

IS YOUR BODY TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?

Shoulder pain, rounded posture, or blades sticking out aren't random — they're signs your upper body is out of alignment. Ignoring them can lead to nerve compression, chronic pain, or long-term joint damage.

💢 Common Symptoms of Shoulder Impingement, Kyphosis & Winging Scapula

  • Pinching or Pain When Lifting Your Arm

    A sharp or aching sensation in the front or top of the shoulder during overhead movements.

  • Rounded Shoulders or Forward Head Posture

    Your upper back and neck are slouched, pulling your shoulders into a chronically hunched position.

  • Scapular Winging

    Your shoulder blades stick out instead of lying flat against your back, leading to instability and dysfunction.

  • Weak or Limited Shoulder Mobility

    You struggle with pulling, pushing, or rotating your arms due to poor mechanics and muscle imbalances.

      3. How Long Does it Take to See Results from the Shoulder Impingement, Kyphosis, and Winging Scapula Program?

      The MoveU Shoulder Impingement, Kyphosis, and Winging Scapula Program is designed to provide noticeable results over time. While individual experiences may vary, many participants begin to feel improvements within a few weeks.

      Remember, consistency is key to achieving optimal results. By following the program’s guidelines and staying committed to the exercises, you can experience a significant improvement in your shoulder health.

      4. Do I Need a Doctor’s Note Before Starting This Program?

      Nope—you don’t need a doctor’s note to begin. This program was built with safety as the top priority. Dr. Mike, a Doctor of Chiropractic with a solid background in sports rehab and biomechanics, designed it to be safe for daily use at home, in the gym, or wherever you choose to move. 

      That said, if you’d feel more comfortable getting your doctor’s okay, you’re welcome to—but it’s not required.

      5. How is MoveU different than seeing a physical therapist or chiropractor?

      MoveU focuses on empowering you to take control of your spinal health through simple, targeted exercises and education you can do on your own schedule. While PTs and chiropractors provide valuable hands-on care, MoveU gives you lifelong tools and techniques to rebuild and maintain a healthy spine long after your visits end — all without surgery or injections. It’s a proactive, sustainable approach to lasting relief and improved mobility.

      6. The Medical Route – Where You’re Headed Without Fixing How You Move

      You could take the medical route and try to fix your back pain there. The issue with the medical system is that it does not address your movement patterns. While you might reduce your pain, you won’t get a long-term fix or solution and will need to continue to go back for more pain management support. Here’s what the medical system offers you:

      • Painkillers. This provides temporary relief, but your joints are still grinding.
      • Nerve burning (RFA). This kills pain signals but doesn’t fix the compression you experience.
      • Surgery. Screws and plates stabilize, but they don’t fix movement patterns.

      Your spine isn’t the problem. Your movement is.
