Womens Health: The Science Behind Relieving Shoulder Discomfort
The Rotator Cuff is compiled of 4 muscles connected to your shoulder blade which meets at the arm bone, the “Humerus”.These are called the Supraspinatus,Infraspinatus, Teres Minor and Subscapularis. They all purposely inserting in different areas of the scapula on one side. Now with such a complicated grouping, to provide stability to the arm movement, such as elevations and rotations. It can be hard to get motivated and feel as if you can recover. But ALL rotator cuff injuries can be cured with the proper rehab and excersises..
Rehab Can be Costly and Time Consuming
Which is why their are excersises that if done with persistence can make your injury recovery so much quicker.
Such exercises should be implemented to speed up the healing process, reduce inflammation naturally, and cut down recovery times following surgery, manipulation, traumas and tears, or simply to cure Impingement Syndrome, Bursitis, Tendonitis or a Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis). As diverse as these disorders are, they all benefit from a specific program where the person afflicted by pain, stiffness, and long recovery times can reduce inflammation, eliminate drugs, cut recovery times to a fraction, and restore quality of life.
Most people rely on medications that soothe un-naturally the pain and swelling but leave them in a state of inactivity and intoxication. When in fact a simple rotator cuff muscle exercise devised by a professional therapist can and will bring back strength and flexibility in as small as a few weeks, making it a lot quicker then most methods that take months and depending on age “years”.
Given the complexity of a shoulder joint, it is best to stick to professional exercises, not drug medications and random methods practiced here and their, because they in some cases can do more harm then excellent.

Science Update: Stem Cells and Cardiovascular Health
Science Update: Stem Cells and Cardiovascular Health
Thanks to a growing body of research, scientists are now recognizing that having more stem cells in one’s bloodstream could be one of the greatest strategies for optimal health. For example, a number of recent studies have shown that a greater number of circulating stem cells equated to greater cardiovascular health.
Let’s look at some of these studies in a small more detail so you can grasp the potential benefits of supporting your body’s natural release of stem cells into the bloodstream …
In 2001, Vasa et al reported that compared to healthy individuals, people with cardiovascular problems had fewer endothelial progenitor cells (EPC’s) in their bloodstream. EPC’s are a type of stem cells responsible for the development of new blood vessels. The study also demonstrated that the EPC’s isolated from people with cardiovascular problems showed less ability to migrate in tissues. The Vasa group also reported that smokers had fewer EPC’s in their blood.
In 2004 Schmidt-Lucke et al measured the number of EPC’s in the bloodstream of 120 individuals (43 controls and 77 individuals at risk for cardiovascular problems) and observed these individuals for ten months. At the end of this time, the authors reported that a reduced number of circulating EPC’s was linked to a poor cardiovascular health prognosis.
The next year, in a similar but more extensive study, Werner et al measured the number of EPC’s in the bloodstream of 19 individuals, and observed these individuals for one year. Overall, the people with more circulating EPC’s experienced fewer cardiovascular problems and, conversely, the people who had fewer EPC’s in their blood showed increased incidences of cardiovascular events.
Thanks to recent studies, scientists now know why greater numbers of stem cells in the bloodstream equate to better cardiovascular health. In essence, when a tissue has poor blood circulation, it lacks oxygen. And when a tissue lacks oxygen, it releases compounds that accomplish two specific tasks: 1) attraction of EPC’s into the tissue, and 2) conversion of EPC’s into capillary cells. Therefore, whenever a tissue is lacking oxygen, a process is triggered whereby circulating stem cells migrate to the tissue and contribute to the development of new capillaries. This leads to greater delivery of oxygen and nutrients, thereby helping the tissue maintain better health.
When we know that poor oxygen and insufficient nutrient delivery to organs and tissues are two of the most common underlying causes for a wide variety of health problems, it is clear that increasing the number of circulating stem cells becomes one of the most valuable strategies for maintaining optimal health.
