			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can get pain in your shoulders, arms and hands when the muscles around your shoulders are &#8220;out of balance.&#8221;  That means some areas of muscle are &#8220;tighter&#8221; than they should be and some areas are weaker. That is what causes pain.</p>
<p>This video will show you two simple movements that you can do to help re-balance your shoulder muscles.</p>
<p>Do these movements thoughtfully.  Take your time.  Try to make your circles perfectly.  Feel what is happening as you do these moves.</p>
<p>And pay attention to your arm, too.  These movements are like having a massage for your arms and shoulder muscles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pain relief from strengthening your muscles?  You bet!</p>
<p>A body that is strong and balanced has much less pain and functions better.</p>
<p>I get letters and emails from people all over the world who took action when they started to understand how their bodies work.  They started to understand that maybe they could become pain-free naturally.  The key is:  They took action.</p>
<p>They took steps to feel better rather than relying on their doctor to do &#8220;the push-ups&#8221; for them.  (You can&#8217;t hire someone to do your push-ups.)</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a letter from Garry Allen.  Garry &#8220;got it&#8221; when he read some of my articles.  He understood.  He wrote previously to tell me he had found a massage therapist who helped a tremendous amount and had relieved a lot of his symptoms of muscle pain.<span id="more-127"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;G&#8217;Day Kathy,</p>
<p>While I have a moment I thought it would be courteous to let you know my health is continuing to improve.</p>
<p>I have taken the opportunity to receive some personal instruction from a qualified &#8220;gym master&#8221; whom I feel confident in to develop my back, neck and stomach muscles in a controlled manner.</p>
<p>While I have had only 3 one hour sessions so far, I most definitely feel not only stronger but more relief from the years of pain and sleepless nights.</p>
<p>The thing is, YOU are the one who empowered me to believe there is a real possibility to feel better and give the simple encouragement to &#8220;have a go&#8221;.  I believe most people will exert themselves to improve at most things if given that right encouragement.</p>
<p>You are a fine, gentle lady and should be commended for your unselfish work.  I sincerely do commend you.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Garry Allen&#8221;<br />
(AllenSigns.com.au)</p>
<p>Now here&#8217;s the thing:  Garry gave me credit but I am not the one who took action.  He did!  Therefore, he should get the credit.  All I did is provide information, same as I&#8217;m doing for you.</p>
<p>You have two choices:  Take action.  Don&#8217;t take action.</p>
<p>Or, I could put it another way:  Get better.  Don&#8217;t get better.</p>
<p>That may sound a bit harsh, but the truth is you really can&#8217;t hire someone to do your push-ups.  And not that I think you should be doing push-ups, either; that&#8217;s just a saying. <img src='http://www.simplestrengthening.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>By the way, Garry took steps in the correct sequence.</p>
<ul>
<li>First, he got rid of the tightness in his muscles by going to a skilled muscle or massage therapist who understood how bodies work.</li>
<li>Second, he began his strengthening program.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can get muscle pain relief, too, and you can start with a simple strengthening program right here.</p>
