What I'm concerned about next is that all-important upward elevation, rotation of the scapula. I didn't wan't to do it before since I wanted to avoid overhead positions that might hurt but it has to be included and may be one of the more important things.

You should see how it feels for you to bring your arms up to an overhead position. Both by bringing them up from the sides of the body and from the front. Probably that won't bother you. If you can do that try doing a shoulder shrug with you arms in the overhead position. Concentrate on the scapular movement. If it doesn't hurt then do that bascially empty handed as an excercise and see what a happens.

This can probably be done after your pressing on upper one.

Hopefully all of this will have the desired affect. It's admittedly dirty rehab but if you let pain guide you you should be OK.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
