Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff

by Jim Johnson, PT

Based entirely on research from peer-reviewed journals and randomized controlled trials, “Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff” is a complete program to prevent and rehabilitate rotator cuff injuries for athletes and non-athletes alike.

In less than 100 pages, readers will learn precisely how the rotator cuff works, what can go wrong with it, and then are guided step-by-step through an evidence-based program that takes just minutes a week to complete.

Drawing from the latest rotator cuff research, “Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff” will be especially useful for those who have been diagnosed with either a partial or full-thickness rotator cuff tear, experience shoulder pain, do upper body weight lifting, play a sport or have a job that involves repeated arm motions above shoulder level, have been diagnosed with “impingement syndrome,” or for anyone simply wanting a healthy and properly functioning rotator cuff.

Let a board certified physical therapist with over 23 years of experience help you solve your pain problem.

Treat your own rotator cuff?

Who needs to worry about that?

According to the medical research, a lot of people.

The rotator cuff, a group of four, flat tendons that connect to the critical muscles that stabilize your shoulder, can cause a lot more problems than you might think.

Consider a few of these statistics from the published literature:

It’s simply just a matter of time until the majority of shoulders get a rotator cuff tear.

According to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, approximately 4% of people under forty years of age have a torn rotator cuff.

After age sixty, however, 54% of people have one (Sher 1995).

Once the rotator cuff gets torn, it doesn’t look good either.

One study followed a group of patients with tears in their rotator cuffs and found that 80% of the them went on to either enlarge or turn into full thickness tears-in less than a two-year period (Yamanaka 1994).

As you can tell, rotator cuff problems aren’t just for elite athletes.

Seriously consider investing just a few minutes a week doing the simple exercises in this book if you:

Have been diagnosed with either a partial or full thickness rotator cuff tear (yes, many studies show that even full thickness tears can be helped with exercise!).

Experience shoulder pain.

Do upper body weight lifting.

Have a job or play a sport where you do a lot of work with your arms above shoulder level.

Have been diagnosed with “impingement syndrome”.

Want a healthy and properly functioning rotator cuff.

So whether you already suffer from a rotator cuff problem, or simply want to prevent one, “Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff” will guide you step-by-step through an evidence-based program that can iron-plate your shoulders in just minutes a week.
