Description

Sit facing a table with your elbows resting on the table and bent so that your forearms are facing the ceiling, holding a stick (or a cane) in your hands. Using the stick, gently push the arm to be worked on to the side, bringing the shoulder into external rotation. Hold the position as soon as you feel a tolerable stretch in the shoulder. Then return to the starting position.
