A rotator cuff tear can be a painful and limiting injury, often affecting everyday tasks like lifting, reaching, or even sleeping comfortably. Whether caused by repetitive movements, sports injuries, or age-related wear and tear, finding the right rotator cuff tear treatment is essential for recovery. At Northwest Rehab Group, patients receive personalized care designed to restore strength, mobility, and overall shoulder function.
Understanding Rotator Cuff Tears
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. When one or more of these tendons tear, patients may experience symptoms such as:
- Shoulder pain, especially when lifting the arm
- Weakness in the affected shoulder
- Limited range of motion
- Discomfort during sleep
Without proper treatment, a rotator cuff tear can worsen over time, making early diagnosis and rehabilitation crucial.
Non-Surgical Rotator Cuff Tear Treatment
At Northwest Rehab Group, the focus is on conservative, non-surgical treatment options whenever possible. These may include:
- Physiotherapy: Targeted exercises help strengthen shoulder muscles and improve flexibility.
- Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to reduce stiffness and restore movement.
- Rehabilitation Programs: Customized plans to gradually build strength and function.
- Pain Management: Non-invasive therapies to reduce inflammation and discomfort.
Surgical Options When Necessary
For more severe tears that don’t respond to conservative care, surgical treatment may be recommended. Northwest Rehab Group works closely with orthopedic specialists to ensure a seamless referral process and comprehensive post-surgery rehabilitation.
