•          Hot Compress: The heat helps to treat inflammation and swelling if any. Placing a plastic bag filled with hot water few times a day for 10-15 minutes will give you some relief.

•          Epsom Salt Bath: The magnesium sulfate in the salt bath helps reduce shoulder pain and also relieves stress from the body.

•          Massage: A gentle massage will help release tension and stress and also improves blood circulation to the affected area. Never massage the affected area directly if it causes pain.
