If you’ve ever had shoulder pain, then you know how miserable it can be. It’s dificult to get comfortable and often impossible to sleep. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to get a deep tissue massage? You bet it would – but who’s going to do it?
The Tennis Ball Solution
The problems with massages:
- they can be expensive
- sometimes difficult to find someone qualified – naturally, this depends on your location (big city vs. rural)
- amateur massages always leave you wanting more – not quite providing total relief
Please Yourself
Here’s a thought – make yourself happy. Okay, don’t get any off-color ideas – I’m talking massage. Deep tissue massage / trigger point therapy. Get a tennis ball and follow along with the video. Let me know what you think – did it help you?
My thoughts on this shoulder pain relief technique
I love a massage – who doesn’t? But my masseuse (my wife) usually gets tired long before the knots are worked out. With this tennis ball technique, I can put pressure directly on the problem area and then control the amount of force applied. Give it a shot.

This story was very helpful for me. My shoulders are a constant part of what I do for a living and what I do for enjoyment….whch is golf. Thanks for the tips.
Brad,
Thanks for the feedback. Sometimes it’s the simple tools and devices that are the most effective. How’s your game?
