Today I  want to talk a little about shoulder impingement what it is, ideas to help you fix shoulder impingement, what you should look for in a therapist to potentially help you with a shoulder impingement issue. So first off, what is shoulder impingement. Shoulder impingement is a generic term to describe a catching or a pinch in the shoulder as you move your arm into certain positions. Some type of a structure inside of the shoulder is impinging on another and it creates pain. It tells us that something's getting caught in that sense, but it doesn't really explain why it's getting caught. And that's why I say it's a generic explanation of what's happening, it doesn't give you a reason that it's happening doesn't even tell you what structures getting pinched. It just tells you that something's getting caught as you move your shoulder, which a lot of times is common sense.
