I'm a novice myself, so take this with a grain of salt. I had the same issues with pain in my shoulder with the jerk. Myofascial release of all those muscles they were talking about with a lacrosse ball or, my personal favorite, a field hockey ball. the pain is excruciating while doing it but it eases up after a while and results come quickly. Do it daily, before each workout and especially before warming up for jerks. Look into getting the Trigger Point Therapy Workbook, its an awesome reference.
