Lacrosse Ball Shoulder Release

Here is a brief video that demonstrates a technique to address limited overhead reach due to tightness and/or pain.  There may be several reasons why this movement would be limited, but this specifically addresses tightness in the pectoralis major and minor (chest) muscles. 

One of the key elements of full pain-free shoulder movement is the ability of the scapula ("wing bone") to move  freely on the ribcage.  Sitting in a slouched position all day in front of a computer might hinder that freedom of motion.  Check out below what to do about it.
