Unique Release Positions for the Shoulder: Positioning for Optimal Results


Listen Later

The purpose of release is to train. Remember that.

Long gone are the passive release positions for patients.

Think about the connections in the regions of the body to each other and then design a position that engages those long vectors connecting one region of the body to each other.
