Product Description
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.

Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! December 28, 2008

I ordered this book after injuring my left shoulder at work. I am a paramedic and familiar with the shoulder anatomy, and was skeptical this would work. After thirty days, though, I am skeptical no longer! I am now almost pain-free. A lot cheaper than surgery! I mean, why not try it? If you wait and have to have surgery, you'll wind up doing the exercises anyway in rehab afterwards!!! Highly recommended.
Very helpful and to the point... December 22, 2008

For anyone that's having rotator cuff issues, I recommend this book highly. Has just enough technical info to get you acquainted to what is/might be going one, but has a lot of helpful exercises and stretches that should help you get to where you want to be, which is more important, anyway. Highly recommended.

So easy to understand! I know have a good knowledge of how the shoulder works. The exercises are very helpful. Got me closer of achieving zero pain. Hardly have pain anymore, mostly tight or a little uncomfortable but that's better than chronic pain ay!! It only takes around 3-4 hours to read. DO IT IF YOU KAIN'T TAKES NO MORES!!

This book, written by a Physical Therapist, explains and shows the muscles involved in the rotator cuff more clearly than any other anatomy book I've picked up on the subject. He explains what muscles you are strengthening for each exercise. Stretching, very much like yoga stretching, is also included. If I could talk to the author, I would ask him to look up Supported Headstand as a very effective treatment for RCS, too. This is thoroughly explained in volume 16 of the International Journal of Yoga Therapy in a research article entitled Headstand for Rotator Cuff Tear: Shirshasana or Surgery.
