Exercise: Shoulder flexion to 90 degrees keeping your shoulder blade rotating upwardly.

Position: Place the clamp on the end of a doorway at a height 1/4"-1" above resting shoulder height.

Movement: Slowly raise your shoulder blade into the end of the clamp. You can attach a stress ball at the end for comfort.  Next, slowly raise your arm to shoulder height and slowly back down. At the end of each repetition, slowly lower your shoulder blade. 

Duration: Repeat the movement for 1-2 minutes up to 3-4 times per day.

Advanced Progression: Practice reaching above shoulder height for a plate or cup in your cupboard without using the bar clamp. 

At first, you may have to consciously rotate your shoulder blade up before reaching your arm above shoulder height.

Over time, it will become natural and no longer painful.
