GET YOUR SHOULDER STRENGTH BACK
Continued from previous page.
Based on the evaluation findings, your physical therapist will provide a diagnosis and work with you to establish clear goals for your rehabilitation. Next, your therapist will design a program tailored to your unique needs, including: • Manual Therapy: Physical therapists often use manual therapy techniques, including joint mobilizations and soft tissue mobilizations, to alleviate pain and improve shoulder mobility. These techniques have been shown to reduce pain and enhance range of motion in individuals with rotator cuff injuries. • Therapeutic Exercises: A customized exercise program is a cornerstone of rotator cuff rehabilitation. Therapists prescribe exercises that target specific muscle groups, gradually improving strength and function. • Home Exercise Programs: Physical therapists provide patients with home exercise programs to promote continuity of care. Consistent adherence to these programs can improve rotator cuff rehabilitation outcomes. • Patient Education: Understanding the injury and learning how to prevent future problems is crucial. Our physical therapists educate patients about proper shoulder mechanics, posture, and ergonomics to reduce re-injury risk. As you continue to progress in your recovery, functional training becomes vital. Tasks like lifting, reaching, and carrying are integrated into the rehabilitation program to ensure you regain your ability to perform daily activities without pain or limitation.
