Physio Exercises for Shoulder

This is one of the top exercises physical therapists ask patients to do while rehabbing their shoulders or back. Use 2-pound dumbbells with each arm in order to build up the shoulder muscles. Sit on the physio ball and find your balance point. Hold the dumbbells at your side. Curl them up to your shoulders and return them to your original position. Do this 15 times, take a 30-second break and then repeat the set. This exercise will help build up the shoulder.

Lay on your back on the floor. Bend your knees at a 45-degree angle. Grasp the physio ball in your hands and hold it slightly above your chest. Lift the ball up until your elbows are straight and your arms are locked in position. Hold this spot for two seconds and then return to the original position. Do this 15 times, take a 30-second break and then repeat the set.

Place your feet and knees on the ground as you kneel in front of the physio ball. Place your hands on the middle of the ball and place your chin in between your hands. Press up with your arms until your lock out your elbows while leaving your feet and knees on the ground. Return to the original position. Do 15 push ups, take a 30-second break and repeat the set.
