    If it's around the rotator cuff, you might try strengthening that area with Jobes exercises. You can search YouTube for some good videos. This one looked pretty good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjA0YNAQI7U

    Some upgrades my babygirl's getting done...just got the items this morning and she is going straight to the LBS today if I make it on time... or tomorrow.
    I am just trying to make my ride more comfortable and safer by getting better response while trying to stop.

    She is getting new Brake Aero Levers and New Front dual Pivot Tektro Brake Caliper


    And these are the dual sided clipless pedals she is wearing already .
