Shoulder Relief for Golfers Like Me!
How the Shoulder Reliever Saved My Golf Game and Prevented Surgery
As a seasoned golf coach and avid golfer, my shoulder injury felt like a devastating blow to my career and passion. My name is Erik Schjolberg, known to most as Coach Erik, and I've been teaching golf for over 25 years at EJS Golf Academy in Scottsdale, AZ. Coaching PGA Tour Professionals, advanced juniors, and college golfers requires a lot from my shoulder, and an injury threatened to end all that. The persistent pain disrupted my life on and off the course, making even simple tasks difficult. I was at the point of getting a reverse shoulder surgery since I had already had two surgeries on this shoulder and now have a completely torn supersinatus tendon.
My Shoulder Injury Story
It all started with a sharp pain in my shoulder that gradually worsened, affecting my swing, range of motion, ball speed, and overall golf performance. The pain became so intense that I couldn't play golf anymore, leaving me in constant discomfort. I tried various treatments, including physical therapy, chiropractic sessions, cortisone shots, nerve blocks and more. Pain persisted and surgery seemed like the only option, but the thought of the lengthy recovery time, work missed and potential risks made me feel uneasy, especially with my past surgery experiences.
Discovering the Shoulder Reliever
One late night, desperate for relief, I stumbled upon the Shoulder Reliever. Skeptical, given my usual aversion to infomercial-type products, I decided to give it a try. This decision turned out to be a game-changer. The Shoulder Reliever not only helped me regain my shoulder strength but also improved my overall performance on the golf course.
Relief and Recovery
The Shoulder Reliever provided much-needed relief from the constant pain. I was able to get back to playing golf and coaching without the nagging discomfort that had plagued me for so long. The product's effectiveness exceeded my expectations, allowing me to return to my daily activities and enjoy my favorite sport once again. My shoulder felt stronger, and I regained my range of motion, which had a significant impact on my golf game.
How the Shoulder Reliever Works
The Shoulder Reliever offers a comprehensive 40-day shoulder pain relief solution that takes only 5 minutes a day. It includes four progressively heavier weighted balls that strengthen muscles without overworking the shoulder. By performing 30 clockwise and counterclockwise rotations in four different positions daily, I experienced significant relief and improved shoulder function. The structured yet straightforward routine made it easy to incorporate into my busy schedule.
Nighttime Recovery
One unique feature of the Shoulder Reliever is the nighttime brace. This brace stimulates blood flow to strengthen the joint while you sleep, ensuring continuous recovery even during rest. Wearing the brace at night provided additional support and helped accelerate my recovery process. I woke up feeling less stiff and more capable of tackling the day's activities.
Why the Shoulder Reliever is a Superior Solution
Cost-Effective
Compared to multiple physical therapy sessions, the Shoulder Reliever is far more affordable. Physical therapy and chiropractor sessions can range from $50 to $100+ per session, often requiring a minimum of 5-10 sessions. The Shoulder Reliever offers a one-time fee, providing a lifetime of shoulder pain relief without any recurring costs. This cost-effectiveness makes it an attractive option for anyone looking to alleviate shoulder pain without breaking the bank.
Effective and Convenient
Painkillers and cortisone shots only mask the problem and often come with unwanted side effects. The Shoulder Reliever addresses the root cause of shoulder pain, offering a non-surgical, drug-free solution. The easy-to-follow daily workout takes just 5-10 minutes, making it a convenient addition to any routine. Its simplicity and effectiveness are unmatched, providing tangible results in a short amount of time.

Reading through testimonials on the Shoulder Reliever website showcases the positive impact it has had on numerous lives. These success stories reinforce the product's credibility and highlight its effectiveness in relieving shoulder pain. The shared experiences of others who have benefited from the Shoulder Reliever offer hope and encouragement to those struggling with similar issues.

I've taken multiple private lessons with Erik and he's been by far the best swing coach I have ever worked with. He has the ability to dissect your swing and make small changes for big improvements. What I love most about his lessons is they go far beyond the 1 or 2 hours you're with him. He follows up with videos of how you can improve at home and on the range. The value he provides is absolutely worth the cost of his sessions. I would recommend any golfer at any level who truly wants to get better to go see Erik.”

Erik is the best! and that is not an exaggeration. There has not been a single lesson where I haven't walked out and felt like a far better golfer than before. What can't be praised enough is the effort and dedication that Eric puts into each of his students, as his approach to fixing and improving my golf swing was specific to me. While teaching, Erik takes the extra time to truly dive into what he is trying to convey rather than just telling you, allowing for a better understanding. Beyond the instruction at the course, Erik sends specific drills to you from an app that allows for slow motion replays, letting you break down everything and work on your game at any time. I genuinely mean it when I say that I would recommend Erik to anyone wanting to improve their golf game, as he is not only a top not instructor but also a top notch person who cares about his students.

Erik is flat out a great coach and mentor! I highly recommend him! Working from the ground up, my swing is healthier and smooth! I wanted a coach that shared the same main principles as the late Tony Manzoni and Erik hits the mark! Found Erik by listening to the Golf Smarter podcast by Fred Greene and connected with EJS Golf through the Perfect Motion app. Erik is motivated and incredibly gifted at his craft!
