I had two months of PT, cortisone shots and finally gave up and scheduled major shoulder surgery. Then I discovered Kai and these moves and one month later I cancelled the surgery. Now I keep up the maintenance (because it tries to come back) on my neck, shoulder and other body parts and am forever grateful to her!!!
OMyGosh! Thank you so so much for sharing these release techniques. I have been in so much pain in my neck and shoulders. I’m an esthetician for over 20 years and it’s caught up! Going to PT, weekly chiropractor, Massage and stretching. You’re ball rolling Has released so much of my pain. Your Amazing!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖
I am not sure who gave you a thumbs down! This has been the best exercise ever! I use to pay a lot of my for my physical therapist to get this knot out of the point just below my right shoulder blade and I moved from that city. Thanks you so much, I found your channel when I needed it most and I keep coming back to it...😊
Thanks Kai! I have been using tennis , large and small massage balls,and a lacrosse ball, but I have been on a flat wall.After watching your video I moved to an end wall. What a huge difference plus holding for 60 seconds!!! I also did a trick my dad taught me ,I put aloe lotion on before massaging.
Thank you!!!! These felt sooo good. I do olympic weightlifting and struggle with feeling tightness on the left side of my neck, this was very helpful. Ready to go hit the gym hard now, thank you! New sub :)
Wow!!!...I practice self massage with lacrosse balls and the only one I've never thought of was the Traps one....it looks satisfying AF, thank you ! 🙏☺️
Awesome Kai, thank you so much for sharing this with us. .. PS. You should be very happy with your UA-cam library and work, you have helped 10,000s of people, God bless you.
Dear Kai aka Superwoman, I honestly had no idea what Lacrosse was until seeing your video. I was surprised to find an entire section of lacrosse equipment at my local Dick's Sporting Goods 😮 here in Houston😮 Thanks for posting such a informative and well produced video. My wife and I feel much better😊😊Thanks!
I can't thank you so much for this. Finally feel so much relief on my upper back/neck and general wellbeing. Especially the pec trigger point! Subscribed to your channel. Loved how you explain everything and also the adjustments.
I find it more efficient by using a bit larger baseball sized ball for rolling on especially on the ground or against a wall because this way your upper back or traps area doesn’t touch the floor and you’ll get a much more better release. There are some “3 inch CORK massage balls” out there but seems that many sellers don’t state the size of the balls and they’re usually lacrosse ball size with a diameter of 2.5”.
Takira Sharde I hope this technique helps! A consistent mobility routine should ease tension in your shoulder region! I also recommend breathing exercises for stress. When work gets stressful we tighten up and that stress manifests in your body.
Hey Kai~ I was introduced to myofacial release using a foam roller several years ago. I’ve been wanting to do more - especially right now for my neck and shoulders. Thank you for this❣️👏🏻💪🏻💖
Hi . I have been having tightness in my upper back rhomboid muscles since last 3 years . Every time I breath out something clicks in my upper back thoracic region . I did x ray but it showed there is a little reduction in my disc space in d12v . But my symptoms mainly are severe tightness in my upper back muscles which cause breathing problem. Is this tennis ball gonna help me quickly ?
I played a video game in a poor posture for too long recently & my neck has hurt so much since :( So this video is perfect timing for me. Now I can prevent similar injury in future! Thank you!
@@kaisimonfitness Oh just a simple free to play online game called Diep.io, it's a lot of fun, but I don't recommend it because it's so addictive! lol!
@@kaisimonfitness I will. I am a physician. Working on a practice that is all about lifestyle change for chronic disease. Im a health coach and CPT but I have my own mentors including a personal trainer. I appreciate being able to work with others and point people in the direction of your channel for info. I appreciate you. We all have to work together to really change the concept of health in this country

This is so great! I love that anyone can do it, and that you offer little adaptations to get better angles and be more comfortable.
Fantastically detailed albeit specific. Thank you so much Kai.
Your instructions were spot on! I feel like a new person with my shoulders now. Thanks Kai!

Hi great video , the exercises felt really good. you say 2 times a week ,would it be detrimental If I did it every day ?
Thanks
Seany F you should be ok. Listen to your body. If you feel overly sore afterwards make an adjustment. Less days or time. :)
@@kaisimonfitness Ok thanks for response and your great content!
Incredible techniques, Kai! Great video.
Theo Simon Thank you ;)
Is it okay to do these movements with a sterno-clavicular dislocation?

hypnocilicdreams haha thank you for the name of the game and for the disclaimer. :)
Is it a valid solution whenever trigger points every day appear on mid rx or high rx trapezius/scapulae due to bad posture?
This will help along with strengthening your back and shoulders!
Great video

The ball on the wall always works well for my shoulder issues but I've never seen someone get in such convoluted stances to achieve it LOL.
That 4ss though. Mama Mia!
Get a theracane. It will make doing these things easier.
Thank you!!
