The Shoulder-Ciser accelerates improvement of shoulder muscles such as the rotator cuff, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, post mastectomy recovery and general upper body conditioning. The Shoulder-Ciser enhances training for high performance sports and workplace health & safety. It is the only exercise device which strengthens the rotator cuff muscles through their full range of motion. Strength and coordination of the shoulder is necessary for all daily activities where the shoulder plays an important role. When the arm is required to move quickly and forcibly, such as when throwing a ball, propelling a wheelchair, or hitting a golf ball, the rotator cuff muscles keep the ball of the shoulder joint centered. The constant resistance generated by the Shoulder-Ciser at any angle of the arm to the body trains the brain to activate the muscles to adapt quickly into their proper modes to prevent injury and enhance performance. The Shoulder-Ciser comes complete with an exercise manual and demonstration video. Packaged in a custom clamshell for a pleasing presentation in any showroom. Available in Black or Red with a standard strength green tubing.

The Aaron Mattes Method of strength training is highly specific. While it is holistic and treats the body as a unit, its primary characteristic is its capability ot break down the body to treat isolated parts. There are protocols for every primary muscle of the body. The book follows the training specificity principle by identifying and resolving specific strength and functional deficits. The Mattes Method then employs full range of motion movements to contract and stengthen targeted muscles while at the same time stretches the opposing muscles. The result is increased muscle strength, joint flexibility and balance across the joints. The Strength DVD is a two disk set, broke down into the different muscle groups. The Upper Body DVD is 59 minutes long and the Lower Body DVD is 1 hour and 28 minutes long. The DVD's are very user friendly and very precise in the instruction and application of each exercise
