Banded shoulder flexion with roller

  • Lie on your back with a foam roller positioned lengthways along your spine, supporting your head and pelvis
  • Bend your knees and place your feet flat on the floor
  • Hold a resistance band with both hands, shoulder-width apart
  • Start with your arms resting by your thighs, keeping slight tension on the band
  • Gently engage your core to prevent your ribs from flaring
  • Slowly raise your arms overhead towards the floor, maintaining tension in the band
  • Keep your elbows straight and allow your shoulder blades to rotate naturally
  • Move only as far as you can without arching your lower back or losing control
  • Slowly return your arms to the starting position
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist
