Health


Is your pain too much for your shoulder?

Toronto-area osteopath Brendon Talbot claims he has the simple secret to relieving shoulder pain and stiffness.

Talbot, who goes by @btosteopathy on TikTok, posted a video earlier this month showing his technique for stretching the soft tissue around the shoulder.

In the 10-second clip, which has garnered more than 37,000 views, he places his shoulder on a table, pulls his elbow and leans over his shoulder.

Talbot warns that the exercise is not suitable for people with shoulder injuries and anyone experiencing pain should stop immediately.

Do not attempt this if you have any underlying shoulder problems. If this causes pain or discomfort, stop immediately and see your healthcare professional, Talbot wrote in the caption of her Oct. 5 video.

The Post reached out to Talbot for comment.

Some of Talbot’s 1.9 million followers on TikTok were grateful for the stretching tip.

I literally do this stretch at work. I didn’t know it was beneficial. It feels good when my shoulder is tense haha, one user laughed.

Beautiful illustration. Captivating! another exclaimed.

Everyday things can cause back pain, Dr. Jason Lipetz, chief of spine medicine at Northwell Health on Long Island, told The Post in 2019.

Repeated overhead activities, like lifting children or reaching for shelves, are often to blame for shoulder pain, Lipetz explained.

James Koo, a board-certified physical therapist with Rusk Rehabilitation at NYU Langone Health, suggested placing a long stick, umbrella, or broomstick across your back along your spine, from your lower back to your neck.

Then, while holding the stick behind your back with one hand behind your neck and the other on your lower back, practice sitting and standing, leaning your hips back toward a chair with the item still pressed against your back.

Do three sets of 10, three times a week.
