There are a couple of other spots to try. One is at the base of neck on the sore side, down along the spine about three inches. The other is under the edge of your shoulder blade. You have to wrap your arm around your opposite side to pull the shoulder blade over to the outside. Then feel along the area now between the spine and shoulder blade.

I had a rotator cuff that got progressively more sore until it got to the point I couldn't lift my arm over my head. After working on a tender spot about in the middle of the upper back, between the shoulder blade and collar bone (it was almost under the collar bone), the pain almost completely went away and completely faded a couple of days later.
