Do you use these exercises for a person who has a significant SLAP tear, to reduce their pain and give them more mobility?

Hi could you suggest any exercises to prevent shoulder hitching from a rotator cuff repair? Thank you. Kim New Zealand.

+Kim Hollis. I'm recovering from rotator cuff tears in both shoulders. Doing the regular rehab out-of-water exercises take too long, and sometimes don't really work. I'm finding the water is better to try things. Get in a pool, not to deep, grab any flotation device and make up your own exercises. I use the flotation devices that look like dumbbells, and a flutter board. I don't float on my back or front like this video. You stay in the water at least a half an hour. Be creative. You'll probably feel some pain/weakness in your back when exercising, because the rotator cuffs muscles go there too.

+mfayant Hi there. Thanks so much for replying to me. I am 6 months post op and the land based 20 minute physiotherapy sessions once a week or fortnight are not really doing anything much at all. I have never seen this kind of PT before and I mentioned it to the physiotherapist at the hospital and she looked at me quizzickly. I will certainly try with a flutter board and see if I can get a hold of those dumb bells. I have never seen the other devices.

+Kim Hollis -- Yea, you need to do this a few times a week, plus its not as boring as doing the out of water recovery exercises. Myself been on a +2 year recovery from muscular chronic pain. Not like you, having the shoulder problem, mine basically covered my whole body from older injuries, to over used muscles, and tight muscles that wouldn't stretch any more. I'm talking hand, wrist, arm, shoulder, back, hip, legs. I was pretty desperate and did a lot o research to help with my pain. I used the internet to research anything to help me. I came across the Magic Bamboo healer, and the Bamboo Healer. Who are these people? They help people with muscular pain with bamboo tapping. In 2014 I went to see Magic Bamboo healer, because I was really in bad shape mentally and physically. There I got bamboo tapped on for 10 days, I should've been there a month, but I was on a time constraint. This treatment does help in getting muscles loose and creating more flexibility, plus ease some pain. It did fix a few of my problems, but not all. What the Magic Bamboo guy told me was to get massage and exercise. But being a big time sufferer he didn't really tell what kind of exercises, I had to figure this out myself over these past couple years. I just started the water therapy, and it seems to working. If you're having some pain and mobility problems still I would suggest seeing the Bamboo Healer in Australia, that's if you can afford to go there. I believe in the Bamboo Tapping although painful when your on the receiving end of it, but you feel much better after. Big BUT, again, a rehab program has to be considered, and it takes time to fix things. I am an old person, so I know I wont' get to that perfect pain free, but I am much much better than I was a couple years ago. Look up the Bamboo Healer on KZbin and watch some of the videos. What you see is real and true.
