Hi Dr. Rowe, the best advisor I will ever find. I've got COPD and emphysema and intense breathing often causes severe pain. If there is a way to reduce pain I would be happy to know. God bless you
@@DrRowe I did, but mostly they don't know this problem and to be honest it seems that they are don't have the best education in Germany. I am looking for a osteopath, but it's the same.
Holy crap. I’ve suffered from military neck and extremely uneven shoulders and this plus one of your other videos has helped so much. I’ve have mri’s and many x rays and multiple doctors still couldn’t help after about 2 1/2 years THANK YOU!
I have been suffering from the same problems for about 9 months now. I learned these exercises recently,they have really helped with the pain and stiffness.
Finally! Thank you so much bro, i can feel the difference after one session of the exercise. I have this problem for a long time now due to bad sleeping posture on the couch so im glad to finally found the solution
AMAZING. I thought of doing the exercises for both high and low shoulders because I was unsure of which issue I had, but after doing 1 session of the high shoulder exercise my issue was solved. Now I just need to focus on developing my left shoulder muscles
Wow- I have two injuries and have done the recommended exercises only once and found massive relief- you are a legend. Thanks so much. Hi from Australia
This beautiful man is doing God's work. I went to a chiropractor that had a physio and chiro department. Paid for 4 sessions with only the chiropractor (almost amounting to $400 for cost). All I got was two exercises that I had to squeeze out of her. Pretty much only paid for a bunch of "crack sessions". I'm glad I found this channel and this video especially. One-two sessions myself I noticed a difference. Going to see how it goes after a month of two. This helped a lot. Thank you! :)
Honestly I rarely comment on UA-cam videos, but this is a game changer for me. Searched that many video and this has been the only one that’s helped my shoulder. Especially the lower side. Much appreciated mate
my uneven shoulders have been annoying me a lot lately, I watched your 2 other videos on high and low shoulder, but from now on I'm doing these exercises daily for the next 1 or 2 months, I'll share the results when I see a change. thanks a lot for making this video
@@youssefmo to be honest I haven't been as consistent as I wanted to be 😞, but, I've noticed when I do the exercises it is much easier for me to consciously even my shoulders, and the exercises help you to know what is yor issues, for example in my case its more of stiffness in left shoulder than strength, and more of a strength in right shoulder
Any time that I try to stretch my neck muscles it throws out my chiropractor adjustment I'm afraid even to shake my head thanks for helping us on our problems
I always carried my heavy backpack on one shoulder in high school, so that shoulder became more tense and my collarbone is higher on that side (and appears shorter). I tried these exercises and idk if it’s just my eyes but I felt and saw the slightest difference and got so excited because I hated my uneven collarbones. Hoping this will even my shoulders, tysm!!
@@aryam4669 i would think so or whenever you can just not excessive, I have been doing it more or less every day at night or morning, Ive also switch carrying my backpack to my opposite shoulder or on both evenly. I do see slight differences in my tighter shoulder and my collarbone has started to even out a bit (but not fully), im just being patient to see how much this can help
i have a severe chronic dislocation issue with my shoulder and am awaiting a second surgery. i’ve been suffering with chronic pain and uneven shoulders for ten years. this is the most relief i have ever felt. THANK YOU
This worked like magic. I've had uneven shoulders since shoulder surgery four years ago. Physical therapy hasn't helped, but one session of your recommendations and there was no unevenness visible. Thank you so much.
I have this exact problem from being a butcher for 11 years. My knife hand shoulder is low and my free hand that did all the pulling is high. Everything in this video feels amazing. 😳
Each and every time I was doing the exercises I was thinking maybe you mixed up and you meant to say the lower shoulder exercises should be the first part of the video untill I saw the last exercises....thank you so much
they are I been low key following you for a year or more dude I wish I was rich to pay you…you immensely made a change how I tackle my kinks in my body🙏 thank you again
Dude, okay, how do you know exactly what's wrong with me every video you upload? I'm almost certain this is God speaking through you. Anyway, thank you for everything you do! Truly!
How do I figure out which shoulder is the problematic one? I have a low right shoulder that tends to hang lower than my left and slightly forward, my left feels more natural but you mention a high shoulder due to tightness. So how do I know which one I should be targeting? Thanks.
I have a extreme imbalance to the point to where my entire left upper body has developed more than my right due to having a high left shoulder and trap development there I hope this can help me finally be able to lift normally
If there's a visible muscle development difference between your left and right sides then you need to switch to doing workouts one-side at a time with individual free weights, start the workout with your weak side and count out your reps to failure and then when you switch to your strong side you do the same amount of reps. You impose a limit to match the weak side even though you can do more on your strong side so your weak side is able catch up to the strong side. Eventually the weak side will catch up to where the strong side was and you will be symmetrical
Wow high shoulder stretch too really helping taking my shoulder pain away ! I pray it lets me bench press again! U know it’s working if it feels good to do it 😂 like that muscle been beggin to be stretched lol amen praise god his bless u mam
Благодаря вашему каналу я научился многим простым и полезным упражнениям и делая их ощутил реальную пользу для своей спины! Спасибо вам огромное, вы делаете очень полезное и хорошее дело!
Great exercises doc! One question, should one start doing all these exercises right from day one or do you recommend starting only with the "strengthening" exercises for a couple of days and then incorporate the "stretching" exercises for the higher and lower shoulders? Thank you!
Wow, I started off this exercise like 2 in different and now it seems to be significantly less. Thank you very much. I will be doing this all week. One question though, what does passively pull mean? Or passively stretch... I don't remember which one it was anymore.
This is so good. Thank you. My right shoulder is so much lower than my left. However as all my severe pains are in my pelvic area that's where I've been focused, but there the only thing I can see that's out of alignment is having slightly uneven hips. My right hip being a teensy bit lower than my left but nothing like the shoulder discrepancy. Do you think it's my shoulder misalignment that's causing the hip one? Should I do these exercises only or combine with the uneven hips one? Maybe combine and hope for the best? My other little complication is that I'm somewhat hypermobile so PT's usually don't see my issues. I pass all their tests with flying colours ..... although anyone could see the shoulder discrepancy (if they looked, but like me PT's have focused on my pelvic area). PS I did have severe whiplash about 30 years ago and I've been in pain in the glute area for about 16 (and counting unfortunately). I'm very grateful for all your videos. you do explain things so well. Thank you.
@@RExDEXTER22 I wish I could tell you, but unfortunately just a week or so after I wrote that I fell over and broke my right shoulder! For the first few months it was total agony and I could hardly use my right arm. I'm still in a lot of pain but able to use my arm for most basic things. You don't say if you are in pain or if you are, like me, hypermobile or if you have issues in the pelvic area. I didn't have shoulder pain at the time i made my comment. I just felt my pelvic issues had created a shoulder imbalance. I do now think that my hypermobility has hindered my recovery. Not sure if if my uneven shoulder height has made things worse. But it's very possible my poor posture (linked to the pelvic issues) has played a part. If you can be clearer with any pain issues or hypermobility I may be able to suggest some things you can try but if it's just uneven shoulders with no pain then I think the exercises on here a worth a try.
What is the threshold that classifies a shoulder high or low? I have x rays and can see exactly where the issues are but I don’t know which side needs what.
So i weight lift and the lower shoulder has caused me crazy muscle imbalance since my whole right arm is majorly weaker now. It fatigues quicker and overall is smaller in size due to the shoulder being lower
Amazing video, and the exercises really helped me feel muscles I didn't even knew I had. I just have one small issue, and that is the Lower Shoulder Step 2, First exercise. When you utilize the doorframe. I tried it, and I feel no stretch at all. I know I am doing something wrong, but no matter how much I tried, I just cannot feel any stretching from it :(. Any pointers?
Hi! I have a low left shoulder with pain and when I shrug that side, there is a grinding inside. I've noticed that when I put my arm behind my back it hurts a lot, but I've been trying to stretch that out. What would you recommend in addition? I subscribed immediately!!
When I am holding both arms above my head on the wall and strengthening right trap do I have to hold my left arm up with the same amount of wait I use in my right arm? It seems like I am building left trap aswell. Also, do I want to try and lock my left arm with my lat? Great video though it’s helping me a lot as I struggle with a big imbalance in my trap and lats. I have had a bigger left trap and a smaller left lat and the reverse for my right side for years an I finally found a way to treat it 🙌 thank you
W/lower L shoulder @7:59 I used your technique and felt near immediate relief. All the tightness is on my right side below the armpit down to the hip region, and sometimes radiating sensations to the shoulder and the wrists. Using your technique tightness on the right dissipates. As the problem has been ongoing I'm sure the tissue on the R will continue to snap back to the painful position to which it has become accustomed. So I'll continue this exercise keeping in mind the rolling out of a pie crust. You have to repeat rolling out the crust until it loses its tendency to contract. DOES IT SOUND LIKE YOURS IS A SOLUTION TO WHAT I'M EXPERIENCING; i.e., AM I ON THE RIGHT TRACK IN MY THINKING? I've tried so many stretching techniques that I'm now in need of a little reassurance. Thank you. I've recorded to my back-up drive many of your tutorials, never knowing when one might just be the solution to a future problem. Your openness and honesty is much appreciated.
Even though I found a very small disbalance in shoulder heights, after doing this setting I felt like a ballerina 😆 so light like a feather 😅 thank you so much!
Amazing video. Dr. Is it possible that hips are also involved in the shoulder imbalance? My left hip is slightly higher the same side my shoulder is higher as well. In any case do these exercises still apply?
Hey Doc, I can't sit normally in a chair so I lay sideways, if I sit normally my lower back gets very story and stiff, it means my whole body has stiffend I'm getting a big gut and I'm lethargic and miserables, any tips for lower back relief? Much appreciate your content, here in Ireland, there's no one with your knowledge that I've seen, it's great
I had similar problems and found a lot of relief by learning to squat and then focusing on posture correction. For me, a lot of my issues were from standing, leaning, and sitting improperly. I was carrying my weight in my heels, which puts a lot of stress on a weak lower back. Get a calf stretch ramp and use it backwards to learn the squat, then use it the right way to stretch calves. You'll see improvement in a few weeks.
@Barlow#1fan I feel you, I was an overweight gamer in my spare time until I was almost 32, lots of neglect to repair. I was always kind of active so I have muscle but my imbalances are pretty substantial from all of that sitting.
Thank you for this video. I have uneven shoulders right now and am dealing with persistent TOS. Do you think a high shoulder can cause or contribute to TOS?
Awesome video! I alreayd did the exercises and I can feel the left lats (where the shoulder is higher) screaming at me because they are weak. On the opposite side, where the shoulder is lower, lats are also screaming but that's because they are so tight. Quick question: can tight lats cause hip issues? Namely TFL tightness and even IT band syndrome? I have been dealing with these tight lats don't he right side for 7 years and it only got worse and worse around the hip and even leg. Many thanks!!
From age 8-15, I constantly pitched baseball and bowled with a heavier than recommended ball for a kid. I’m 31 now and My entire right side of my neck and right trapezius basically bulges out and is hard as a rock compared to the left. It makes decent posture near impossible for me and I’m constantly catching myself twisting my neck just to relieve the discomfort. It’s really hard to look at in the mirror. It’s as if my head is sitting off center from my spine as well. Going to give this a try on the regular. The first 2 reps felt really great. Not expecting to look like a model but I really hope this yields results. I can’t my doctor to do anything about it.
Thank you, I did find some relief with this video, I'd been having some weird front neck tightness on my left side for over a week, then I realized it was coming from my upper trap. Looking in the mirror saw that that same side my trap and shoulder was higher. First of all thanks, and second I had a question can a tight upper trap cause some pain and tightness on the front side of the neck on the same side? It's been a strange sensation. thanks
I’ve had uneven shoulders since I was in middle school, 15 years now. I used to walk several miles home from school everyday and would carry heavy textbooks in my backpack. Over time I would rely on my right shoulder more and more because it was my strong side. Now that shoulder sags down. I’m excited to see if these exercises can improve such a long-standing shoulder imbalance. I’ll try it for a few weeks and see how im doing.
Are the stretches not advisable for hypermobility? I have hypermobile shoulders so not sure about some of the stretches? Being investigated for connective tissue disease also. My right shoulder is lower, not sure whether to just focus more on the strengthening exercises.
Hi doc! Your excercises really do help a lot!! But i had a small issue, my entirety of the right trapezium muscle aches a lot and there's sharp pain throughout the lower right back as well.. its due to a spine stretching excercise i was doing to increase my hight.. in the prcesss ig i sprained that area.. can you please help..?
Do you have away for us to access these different videos by topic? I save them, but as far as finding them is too time consuming. (Yeah I know,I need to learn computer/cellphone usage 😭)
My question would be how do I notice if the high shoulder or the low shoulder is in proper position so which side is the non neutral? I recently noticed this on bend over barbell rows, my dominant side seems to pull higher than my higher shoulder which results in the bar being uneven. In front of the mirror while standing, I noticed the dominant side shoulder position is lower. I wonder if this is a muscle imbalance issue and if I should just switch to unilateral exercises for a while and focus on progress on my non dominant side (higher shoulder)?
My right shoulder has always done this since I started sports in middle school I'm now 30 and I still lean to my right. I always thought it was related to that but who knows I want to fix it because it's embarrassing.
Instant relief in my high shoulder I just thought I had dead muscles in my low shoulder. Question? My elbow extends all the way but I can't get it to lock out feel like my pectoral is numb and my wrist pops at that ball in the wrist any idea what cause that I'm thinking pinched ulnar nerve?

@Barlow#1fan I feel you, I was an overweight gamer in my spare time until I was almost 32, lots of neglect to repair. I was always kind of active so I have muscle but my imbalances are pretty substantial from all of that sitting.
Thank you for this video. I have uneven shoulders right now and am dealing with persistent TOS. Do you think a high shoulder can cause or contribute to TOS?
Postural issues can cause a lot of things…
😢😢 thanks doctor
😂
Hi! Can I do these exercises before working out?
Thanks ❤
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video! I alreayd did the exercises and I can feel the left lats (where the shoulder is higher) screaming at me because they are weak. On the opposite side, where the shoulder is lower, lats are also screaming but that's because they are so tight. Quick question: can tight lats cause hip issues? Namely TFL tightness and even IT band syndrome? I have been dealing with these tight lats don't he right side for 7 years and it only got worse and worse around the hip and even leg. Many thanks!!
From age 8-15, I constantly pitched baseball and bowled with a heavier than recommended ball for a kid. I’m 31 now and My entire right side of my neck and right trapezius basically bulges out and is hard as a rock compared to the left. It makes decent posture near impossible for me and I’m constantly catching myself twisting my neck just to relieve the discomfort. It’s really hard to look at in the mirror. It’s as if my head is sitting off center from my spine as well. Going to give this a try on the regular. The first 2 reps felt really great. Not expecting to look like a model but I really hope this yields results. I can’t my doctor to do anything about it.
Did this worked?
Thank you, I did find some relief with this video, I'd been having some weird front neck tightness on my left side for over a week, then I realized it was coming from my upper trap. Looking in the mirror saw that that same side my trap and shoulder was higher. First of all thanks, and second I had a question can a tight upper trap cause some pain and tightness on the front side of the neck on the same side? It's been a strange sensation. thanks
This is what I needed! Thank you so much.
Glad you found the video!
This injury is so annoying hopefully this helps 😢
Hey my right shoulder is wider than my left shoulder so I should do all these workouts on my left shoulder
I’ve had uneven shoulders since I was in middle school, 15 years now. I used to walk several miles home from school everyday and would carry heavy textbooks in my backpack. Over time I would rely on my right shoulder more and more because it was my strong side. Now that shoulder sags down.
I’m excited to see if these exercises can improve such a long-standing shoulder imbalance. I’ll try it for a few weeks and see how im doing.
Is it working
my case is exactly like yours, please update me on
Are the stretches not advisable for hypermobility? I have hypermobile shoulders so not sure about some of the stretches? Being investigated for connective tissue disease also. My right shoulder is lower, not sure whether to just focus more on the strengthening exercises.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Do you press your shoulders into the wall for all of the exercises or just the first one?
Also, thank you for the great video!

These exercises can fix neck misalignment
Are these exercises good for someone with mild scoliosis?
Do you have away for us to access these different videos by topic?
I save them, but as far as finding them is too time consuming.
(Yeah I know,I need to learn computer/cellphone usage 😭)
I have playlists created, but you can just type 'spinecare' and the symptom you're looking for in the search bar, and our video should pop right up.
Should i do the exercises for both shoulders or just for zur weak shoulder to even Things out
are these exercises good for uneven shoulder caused by scoliosis?
should I continue to do this exercise when I fix things or stop after that?
Keep it up or it will come back especially if you had a low shoulder for years
Which side should i carry things with?
Together with a shoulder pillow position and this my shoulder finally in the middle
My question would be how do I notice if the high shoulder or the low shoulder is in proper position so which side is the non neutral?
I recently noticed this on bend over barbell rows, my dominant side seems to pull higher than my higher shoulder which results in the bar being uneven.
In front of the mirror while standing, I noticed the dominant side shoulder position is lower.
I wonder if this is a muscle imbalance issue and if I should just switch to unilateral exercises for a while and focus on progress on my non dominant side (higher shoulder)?
Love it
Do I have to do all the exercises to ease my left shoulder?
bro what i just came from eating my food and this randomly came up
Can I do step 1 on dip bars, where I keep my arms locked and elevate my body?(I use 2 arms now instead of 1)
I have a low shoulder on the right side, can I also do the exercises for a high shoulder?
My right shoulder has always done this since I started sports in middle school I'm now 30 and I still lean to my right. I always thought it was related to that but who knows I want to fix it because it's embarrassing.
how do I know whether my left shoulder is high or my right shoulder is low? Or should I just work on both of them and make them meet in the middle?
Is it ok to do all exercises with both shoulders. Or just the shoulder that is too high or too low ?
Hellos doctor my left should is higher then my right so this exercise do I have to do it on both side? Or just one side? For my higher shoulder?
Instant relief in my high shoulder I just thought I had dead muscles in my low shoulder. Question? My elbow extends all the way but I can't get it to lock out feel like my pectoral is numb and my wrist pops at that ball in the wrist any idea what cause that I'm thinking pinched ulnar nerve?
Can a high shoulder cause shoulder impingement?
How long did you have to this for
