What has helped was their idea to very subtlely contract my shoulder blades- just a little- and do it frequently- but just a little. This brings my shoulders back and opens my chest. I especially like to do this when sleeping on my back. They also gave me shoulder massage; later my shoulders hurt so much that I couldn't bear the massage.
My shoulders continued to give me huge problems, so I ordered a shoulder heating pad, a tens machine, and a body buddy from Amazon. The shoulder heating pad did not go far enough down my back; the tens machine was useless because I didn't have anyone to attach the stickers to my back, but the Body Buddy did help. It is a large S piece of plastic that helps you reach all the places on your back that you couldn't reach so that you can give yourself trigger point therapy. I spent hours doing that because I had hundreds and hundreds of painful spots. This way I could control the pain level as I couldn't when someone else was giving my a shoulder massage. Eventually I ran out of spots and my shoulders still hurt- though not as much.

Bowen therapy will also achieve a good result in dealing with an underlying problem - and then you can do targetted exercises to improve the muscle support of the spine.

If you type most of these acronyms into google search Wikipaedia will usually tell you what they are or there are dictionaries of modern slang and street language on the web too.
