Tommy's Shoulder Fix
Tommy's Invisible Luggage Syndrome
Understanding Tommy's Condition
- Tommy is experiencing discomfort due to "invisible luggage syndrome," which affects his shoulder alignment and overall posture.
- His arms hang five finger widths from his side, indicating a significant issue with shoulder mobility and strength.
- The weakness in his lats makes him susceptible to playful physical interactions, such as being easily pushed down.
- An assessment using the Empty Can Test reveals that Tommy's shoulder strength is severely lacking, allowing for minimal resistance against pressure.
- Additionally, Tommy's glutes are also weak, contributing to discomfort and possibly linked to repressed emotions.
Treatment Protocol
- To address these issues, Tommy undergoes the "Sigmund deltoid protocol," aimed at improving shoulder function and stability.
- Post-treatment results show significant improvement; no more invisible luggage syndrome as his humerus aligns better with his body.
- After the protocol, Tommy’s lats become "rock solid," indicating enhanced muscle strength and functionality.
- The treatment not only alleviates physical symptoms but also seems to positively affect Tommy’s emotional state.
