Pain In Between Shoulder Blades

Pain In Between Shoulder Blades

People write to me wondering if I can help them get rid of the "knots" near their shoulder blades. I explain the causes of their back pain symptoms. I help them understand why they are having pain and I also tell them why the therapies they have tried did not work, or didn't work for very long.

Here are some excerpts from a recent response to "Gloria. "

The reason the hard massage and other treatments you have had didn't work for very long is probably because they did not address the cause of your pain.

 The massage therapist and doctor were working on the symptom (your pain) rather than the cause of your symptom. This is a common occurrence as therapists and doctors often do not understand why someone is having pain.

I am guessing that you are right-handed, since your pain symptoms are on the right side.

First, some background: All muscles attach to at least two bones. That is what allows us to move. If a muscle is pulling on one side of a bone (for instance, one side of your shoulder blade) then the muscles that attach on the other side of the bone will also be pulled on.

More Fact About: Pain In Between Shoulder Blades

In other words, when a muscle contracts, or gets short and tight, it pulls on a bone. It moves the bone out of the bone's neutral position. The other muscles that attach to that bone then get stretched (simply because they are attached to the bone, which has moved.  They don't like to be stretched, so they go into their own type of contraction--they get a spasm they tighten and become taut.

This is a natural reaction from muscles when they are stretched for a long period of time. This is how your body keeps the overstretched muscles from tearing or being injured.

The shortened muscles don't usually complain, but their counterparts do.

So, what you are feeling is pain from tautness in the overstretched muscles. Those are your "knots. "

If those painful spasms are massaged deeply, or injected with medicine to relax them, they may relax for a short time or not.  The reason they can't stay relaxed is because the other muscles and bones that originally pulled on them are still pulling! It is just a law of nature that taut muscles are unable to relax until the pulling muscles are relaxed.

 This is the cause of your pain and this is what must be released, or relaxed, to give you relief--the pulling muscles.

It is okay to also massage the "knots" to help release them, after the pulling muscles are released. Then your knots will be able to relax and be released.

  1. It is true that we must go for the causes of the symptoms and for this we at Physiotherapy North Ryde guide our patients that they will have to modify their life style and if they do with physiotherapy so this can have synergistic effect on their treatments and recovery can be more faster that planned.
