Limited left arm function

I just did Tasha's UB workout on day 4 of FBstrong2

There was a lot of overhead pressing. Since I can't stretch my left arm fully overhead (osteopath says calcification in the upper shoulder, which makes the bicep tendon complaining) I replace the overhead press to a landmine press with a resistance band. That way the arm goes up and forward diagonally, which I can do without pain.

Are there any of you with other alternatives that I could do? Maybe even our pt trainers Kayla, Amanda or Nicole?

Also, would it be okay not to push as far up in the overhead press, so that the arm stays bent a bit? I know that, if I do so, I have to practice that on the other side also. But would it become stronger if I do so, or does this lead to nothing ?
