This is how to perform the "scoop" that we often talk about. It isn't so much that this motion has healing properties, it is that by working on improving your control of your shoulder blades, people start to feel better. Gaining awareness (proprioception) and confidence in your movement is important for your body and mindset.

This is a motion that l apply to just about every strengthening movement that I do. It encourages a lot more musculature to be involved in your exercises than letting the shoulders roll up and forward (which isn't bad, it's just overused in my opinion). So, we teach people how to strengthen both ends of the spectrum. Up and forward as well as down and forward.

Notice that we are not teaching a down and BACK here.

This exercise isn't often taught or understood by a majority of professionals, yet we know that downward and upward rotation of the scapular is important for shoulder health. The shoulder should automatically do these things on its own, however, what is the harm in learning how to do it yourself? It provides you with a better understanding of your body, more confidence in your body, and the ability to target muscles differently to change an exercise.

Learning this movement helps to reduce pain from a mobility perspective, but also a neurological perspective - confidence plays a massive role in the reduction of discomfort from an injury.
