The human body is an amazing thing, and the interlocking structure of muscles and tendons just makes it all the much more amazing to me. The rotator cuff is a fine example of that, it being comprised of four separate muscles that originate in the area of the shoulder blade and then combine, with their corresponding tendons to form a covering, or a cuff for the shoulder socket. This serves several purposes. One of the things that it does is to protect the shoulder, to a reasonable degree, from injury and the other is to give our arm and shoulder area the ability to move in some unique directions. Sometimes, however the rotator cuff gives us some problems and rotator cuff therapy becomes necessary.

Rotator cuff problems are generally caused by repetitive stresses at work, such as lifting heavy boxes over your head for many years. At first the pain may be manageable by pain killers, but at other times you may need to seek out stronger pain medication or perhaps even go in for rotator cuff therapy or surgery. The other problem with the rotator cuff is caused by a sudden trauma to the area, sometimes through a fall. When this happens the rotator cuff is instantly damaged and is usually accompanied by sensations such as a popping sound, and a sudden weakness in the arm.

When you go in for rotator cuff therapy you can expect a progressive program of exercises according to your level of healing. They will have you do specific movements that mimic the motion of the rotator cuff, either with or without weights, and will progressively add weight to strengthen the rotator cuff area. The therapist may also give you exercises to work on at home to help expedite your recovery.
