Nobody wants to consider the possibility of suffering a life-altering disability. Losing functionality or motion in the arm or shoulder can be devastating to the quality of life a person leads. Loss of movement and consistently severe pain are some of the impacts that a common injury can cause. Being aware of how Arm And Shoulder Pain happens and how its treated can give you an edge in your own recovery.
Shoulder arm pain are often caused by some kind of accidental trauma or impact and can be of various levels of intensity which will determine the severity of the injury. Many times, various factors such as the general state of health of the patient such as fitness, activity level, age, bone density to name a few, will play a role in how serious the patient's injury is.

The main physical tests are supraspinatus test, drop arm test, bicep test and more.

Shoulder rest?
Which violin shoulder rest would you suggest.
I have been playing for about 10 years. I have been using Kun pretty much the whole time. I have a Kun super and I'm just wanting something a bit different.
A good shoulder rest is one that gives you the height and stability you are looking for. I would recommend taking your violin to a luthier or supply store and just trying out as many shoulder rests as you can until you find the right match. I played on a Wolf Superflexible and hated it, and then fell in love with a cheapo Resonans. Just try things out!
