Learn More: The Journey Behind ShoulderGlide
At the heart of everything we do is a simple but essential belief: shoulder health is crucial to overall well-being. Whether you're an athlete, a desk worker, or recovering from an injury, your shoulders are integral to movement and daily life. Yet, maintaining and restoring shoulder health can be frustratingly difficult. Conventional rehabilitation methods often lack precision, leaving individuals struggling with incomplete recovery and lingering pain.
That’s where ShoulderGlide comes in.
The Problem with Current Shoulder Therapies
Traditional shoulder rehabilitation and strengthening methods, while well-intentioned, often miss the mark in targeting the complex needs of the shoulder joint.
Many existing tools fail to isolate the key muscles—like the rotator cuff—or offer the adjustability needed for gradual, progressive improvement.
Worse yet, the lack of customization makes it challenging for both therapists and individuals to adapt to different stages of recovery or strength training.
Introducing the ShoulderGlide Team
What happens when three friends share their frustrations about shoulder injuries and the lack of effective rehabilitation tools? For Christian, Rosie, and Rory, their personal struggles with shoulder rehabilitation revealed a persistent gap in the market. Each had experienced the limitations of existing devices and traditional therapy methods firsthand. Through countless conversations about their own recovery journeys and the inadequate solutions available, they realized they were uniquely positioned to create something revolutionary.
Christian, a seasoned mechanical engineer with extensive experience in precision manufacturing and product development, recognized that existing shoulder rehabilitation devices were falling short of their therapeutic potential. After experiencing his own shoulder injuries and seeing friends and family struggle through traditional rehab processes, he became determined to create a better solution.
With a background in product design and a keen eye for problem-solving, Christian had a unique perspective on how to bridge the gap between concept and reality. He had seen too many rehabilitation tools fall short due to poor design or a lack of adaptability. Determined to break that cycle, Christian was committed to developing a device that wasn’t just effective but also compact, durable, and beautifully designed. His expertise in engineering allowed the team to iterate on prototypes quickly, incorporating precision mechanics that isolated specific shoulder movements while maintaining a sleek, portable form factor.
Rosie brought over a decade of expertise in functional fitness, mobility and movement mechanics. Having worked with hundreds of individuals as a personal trainer and yoga instructor, she recognized that the shoulder joint's complexity required a tool that was both versatile and adaptable. She knew firsthand how critical shoulder health was—and how limiting the available treatment options could be. Rosie brought her deep understanding of movement and practical experience to the team, helping shape a product that would be intuitive, user-friendly, and able to meet the varying needs of people at different stages of recovery or strength training.
Rory's background in business development and entrepreneurship completed the founding team. Drawing from his own frustrations and driven by his passion for business and innovation, he also envisioned a device that could offer a more precise and progressive approach to shoulder recovery. With years of experience in scaling innovative companies and identifying opportunities, he recognized that solving this problem required more than just a good idea—it needed a sustainable business model and clear path to market. His strategic vision and understanding of the helped the team shape ShoulderGlide from a concept into a viable commercial product.
Together, they committed to developing a solution that would revolutionize shoulder rehabilitation.
The result is ShoulderGlide—not just another rehabilitation device, but a meticulously engineered system that brings clinical-grade shoulder therapy into an accessible format, backed by biomechanical expertise and precision engineering.
This isn't just a product; it's the culmination of years of professional experience and dedicated development, designed to set a new standard in shoulder rehabilitation and strength training.
