Super Shoulders Online Workshop

Who are you?

Do you have shoulder pain? Weakness? Shoulder bursitis? Radiating pain, tingling, or numbness from the shoulder down to the hand?
Maybe it's hard for you to carry things or lift your kids or grandkids. Maybe you struggle sleeping because of shoulder pain?

Does it cause pain even to brush your hair, hook your bra, or open a dang jar?

If any of this describes you then this series might be just the thing you need.
When we’re done, you’ll feel less pain, move more feely, and be empowered with skills and tools to take care of your shoulders for the rest of your life.

Did you know?

About 85% of all aches and pains in the body can easily be fixed yourself but most people continue to suffer, sometimes for years or decades, because they just don’t know how to do that?

Here’s the problem you face: you’ve got this issue in your shoulder that might impact your neck and arms, too. Maybe it's shoulder pain. Maybe it's numbness and tingling down your arms. Maybe it's shoulder bursitis. All you know is it hurts and it's getting in your way of doing the things you want to do, which may simply be to walk around the house without pain!

So you go to a doctor, physical therapist or skilled massage therapist. Sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't. Maybe you've even considered surgery because it's so bad!

Shoulder issues can bring you down a rabbit hole of unhelpful therapies or reliance on someone else to fix you. Sometimes the therapies help for a while. Sometimes your symptoms actually get worse.

Luckily for you, there’s a simple solution. Let me introduce you to FreeBody Therapeutics.

FreeBody is a simple but highly effective system that transforms your body out of pain and dysfunction so you can get back to enjoying your life.

Super Shoulders Series

Online 3-Class Series

HERE IS WHAT YOU WILL GET

Easy foam rolling and self myofascial release practices so you can locate and release the exact location of tension causing your pain or immobility, and do it yourself. No more wasting time and money seeing therapists or waiting to get help when you have a problem. You can fix it yourself! (Balls are required for this part. You have the option to provide your own or purchase a few basic balls for the series.)

Access to the course membership site with all of the classes.

An Ebook to download with anatomy lessons and information on trigger point and pain referral patterns. This will help you understand you pain further and support your experience in the classes.

Targeted stretching so you can open up the short and stuck places in your body. You will know exactly where and how to stretch without wasting time on things that may make you feel worse or not help at all.

Movement breaks that you can incorporate throughout your day so you can free up your joints and easily gain more strength and mobility. These short breaks make it so that you don’t have to spend an hour every day on physical therapy exercises and you will move and feel much better!

Simple practices to build balanced strength in the muscles around the shoulders. Build strength step by step while maintaining good range of motion.

Proven breathing practices that soften the entire nervous system so you can release tension through the whole body making you more relaxed and calm and reducing pain and tension.

In the "Super Shoulders" series we will address:

rotator cuff injury
shoulder bursitis
radiating sensation (pain, numbness, tingling) down the arms into the hands
loss of mobility in the shoulders
weakness
inability to pick things up or carry heavier items
ache in the front of the shoulder
ache in shoulder and wrist
deep ache in the shoulder joint that's hard to pinpoint
hurts to brush your hair, hook your bra, or reach behind you
and more!

This course series uses therapy balls for the self trigger point release work. The toolkit needed is the FreeBody Basic Plus Toolkit. The toolkit costs $45 (shipping is free in the US). You will have the option to purchase at the time of checkout. Check out the toolkit and see if you've got what you need. If you have balls similar to the ones listed, you may be able to use your own tools. I have many repeat students who use the same toolkit for years. This simple set of tools and the skills you will learn from this course are game changers. Truly!

I'm ready to feel great!
