There was a big “catch” when I tried to lift my arm up from my side. Description of the Painįrom the very beginning, what I felt was an instability in my shoulder. Rolfing, acupuncture, and massage seemed to do nothing, unfortunately. They can usually fix me up.ĭry needling by my chiropractor, Brent Apgar, took away a lot of the pain that was shooting down my triceps, biceps and up my neck, so that was cool. I sought out my normal practitioners for help: rolfers, acupuncturists, massage therapists, and chiropractors. When I first started experiencing the pain, I thought it was just a tweak like so many others I’ve had over the years, and that it would go away. I’ve also gotten a ton of questions from readers and podcast listeners who want answers to their own shoulder problems, so this is for you guys, too.
I wanted photos and videos and first hand accounts from my community, and it was lacking, so this is my contribution. I know a ton of us have had shoulder injuries and surgery, but I couldn’t find details about the kind of pain people feel, what warrants surgery, what people have recovered from without surgery, what surgery is really like, what kinds of different surgeries there are, and what the recovery process is like. The reason I’m writing this is, first of all, because I wasn’t able to find the kind of information I wanted from climbers about shoulder injuries when I was researching it.
If you’ve been following the podcast or my blog posts, you’ll know by my incessant whining that my shoulder pain kept me from climbing since early May of this year, which sucked. I, by the way, am Neely Quinn, one of the founders of TrainingBeta.
