Rotator Cuff Tears & Injury
Physical Therapy is highly effective in treating rotator cuff tears and injuries. In many cases, physical therapy has helped people avoid surgery all together.
The rotator cuff is a group of tendons and muscles in your shoulder. They form a “cuff” over the top end of your arm. Together, these muscles work together to help you lift and rotate your arm. The rotator cuff is instrumental in keeping the shoulder steady and stable as your arm moves.
A rotator cuff tear can be caused by different things. It can get sore from normal wear and tear over the years resulting in pain and immobility that feels like it just happened overnight. You can also tear the rotator cuff as a result of direct trauma, such as a fall.
It is also common to injur the rotator cuff when you do the same thing again and again, such as pitching or throwing in baseball. In this case, the rotator cuff can start to fray, like a worn sock. It can separate or tear, as a result of the repeated aggravation.
Physical Therapy for Rotator Cuff Injuries will help you:
• Get back your range of motion
• Learn exercises to strengthen and stabilize your shoulder muscles
• Improve the way you sit and stand (your posture) to help reduce pain
• Find a way to sleep and rest that doesn’t hurt your shoulder
• Learn to carry objects safely
• Use ice, heat, and other modalities to ease the pain
• Understand why you need to keep your shoulder joint moving and active
• Find ways to do things so that they don’t hurt your shoulder
• Return to your regular activities (be patient — this can take a while)
