Shoulder joint plays an important role for your quality of life.
 
The structure of the shoulder gives us a wide range of movement at the expense of instability. Therefore, it may provoke problems even by moving hands in different directions.
Paradoxically, the shoulder joint needs stability and flexibility at a time.
 
Shoulder joint is like a golf tee and a ball. You might feel stable when a ball stays still on a golf tee. That is when your shoulder joint is put in place for the next movement. However, once a ball becomes unstable, that is when you feel uncomfortable on the shoulder.
