Your rotator cuff muscles play a crucial role in stabilizing your shoulders and allowing them to move properly. That’s why it’s so important to strengthen this muscle group when you’re dealing with shoulder injuries, and these moves and stretches will help you do that.

Doorway Stretches

To do this move, you should stand in an open doorway, and hold the frame with both your arms. While gripping the frame, lean forward through the doorway, while keeping your back straight. You should feel a light stretch and shift your weight onto your toes, before returning to standing position and repeating the move.

Pendulum Swings

After leaning forward and placing one hand on a table for support, let your other arm hang freely and gently swing it forward and back. Repeat the move by moving the arm in a circular motion and side-to-side before doing the same with your other arm.

Crossover Arm Stretches

Stand up straight, relax your shoulders, and gently pull an arm across your chest, reaching as far as possible. Use your other arm for support and hold the stretch for 30 seconds, before relaxing for 30 seconds, and repeat the move with your other arm.

If you’ve never heard of a supraspinatus, it’s an upper back muscle that aids in shoulder abduction and stabilization. It also makes up the rotator cuff; it’s one of the four shoulder muscles which helps you lift your arm away from the side of your body.

Here are some exercises to stretch your supraspinatus.

Pendulum Exercise

For this exercise, you will have to stand adjacent to a bench or a table and place your left hand lightly on top of it for support. While keeping your spine straight, lean forward from your waist.

Then, let your right arm hang freely in front of you and relax your right arm and shoulder completely. For a better stretch move your right arm forward and backward, back and forth, side to side and around in a circle. Repeat the process with your other arm.

Seated Stretch

This time, you will be needing a chair or a bench to sit on. Bend your left elbow at a 90-degree angle, placing the arm in front of you with the below lying across your lower ribcage.

Next, place your right upper arm under your left upper arm and reach up with your right hand to grab your left thumb. Relax your left arm and shoulder, lightly pulling your left thumb toward the left, while rotating your left arm out. Hold it for 30 seconds and repeat four times before switching to the other shoulder.
