Welcome to Dr. Matthew Boes’s Shoulder Replacement Rehabilitation video series. This video is designed to help maximize your recovery following shoulder replacement surgery. The goals of our Phase 2 program for shoulder replacement rehabilitation are to progress to full range of motion of the shoulder and to start light strengthening exercises. Remember the following as you engage in Phase 2 shoulder replacement rehab exercises:
Conduct stretching exercises [Exercises 1-5 in this video] 2-3 times daily to maximize shoulder motion
Hold the stretch position for 30 seconds, relax for 15 seconds, then repeat stretch
Perform one set of 5 repetitions each exercise
Conduct strengthening exercises [Exercises 6-12 in this video] 3-4 times per week [every-other-day] to prevent irritation
Start with lightest resistance band, progress to next highest band every 2-3 weeks
If exercises are causing pain, decrease resistance band or perform exercises every third day to allow shoulder to rest
Do not progress if shoulder is painful after exercises
Therabands comprise an assortment of exercise resistance bands, which can be purchased in a set or provided by therapist for home use
The following shoulder stretching and strengthening exercises, which are demonstrated in this video, should be conducted during phase 2 of your shoulder replacement rehab:
WALL SLIDES - FORWARD ELEVATION
TABLE SLIDES - FORWARD ELEVATION
TABLE SLIDES - ABDUCTION
DOORWAY STRETCH - EXTERNAL ROTATION
CROSS BODY
BANDS - ELEVATION & ABDUCTION
BANDS - EXTERNAL ROTATION
BAND - HORIZONTAL ROW
SCAPULAR EXERCISES - SHRUGS
SCAPULAR EXERCISES - NO MONEYS
SCAPULAR EXERCISES - TABLE TOP PROTRACTION
SCAPULAR EXERCISES - TABLE TOP RETRACTION
Icing is very important after each therapy session, so be sure to place an ice pack or cooling pad on the affected shoulder for 10 minutes to help limit any irritation from exercise. If the shoulder joint is stiff, try using moist heat for 10 minutes prior to exercise to help loosen things up.
This video should not be used as a substitute for regular physical therapy visits and guidance from your physician. Only progress from one phase to the next based on recommendation from your physician. Most therapy regimens, particularly after shoulder replacement surgery, are based on a healing timeline. Progressing too quickly, even though it may feel okay at first, may put you at risk for injury. Regular physical therapy visits are valuable for giving you feedback on your progress and helping to ensure you are doing exercises properly. If you develop any questions or concerns regarding your condition while using this video, contact your physician. Best of luck in your recovery from shoulder replacement surgery.

Insurance won’t cover PT via zoom so I’m grateful for these videos!

[@huskerredc223]

All the exercises especially in Phase I and beginning Phase 2 are spot on and exactly THE SAME as what I received when going to actual physical therapy. I will continue with your examples. THANK YOU!!

[@FailureFarms]

Thank you! I was discharged from PT for missing too many appointments (my fault totally, kept sleeping through my alarms) and have been trying on my own to rehab it, felling it getting weaker and more stiff ever day. This series is great and will help immensely! Thanks again for what you do!

[@kimstyles4006]

Thanks again

[@marilynharrison3829]

Looking for all the videos you have on shoulder replacement surgery and therapy. Also, do you know a site to go on to watch surgery preformed on a real person ? Thanks.

[@drsaurabhbhargavaphysiothe155]

From which time phase 2 will start.....ie after post operative how many days or week

[@mariebrower9839]

Do these apply to reverse shoulder replacement?

[@dennispeters7650]

Marie, yes. I had a reverse shoulder replacement two years ago. I started about week 4 with the phase 1 video, by week 10 I was swinging a softball bat. If any movement causes pain, stop before you get to the pain point. Ice afterwards. I had a second reverse done on my other, non-dominant shoulder six weeks ago, just started last week with phase 1.

@@patiorio1538 I feel your pain. 9 weeks now and I can't come close to this. Waiting to see if insurance will allow more pt

[@dennispeters7650]

I am on my second reverse shoulder replacement. I started Dr Boes phase 1 stretches and exercises about week 4, post op. I was very careful to stop at the point of any discomfort, especially lying on a bench with stiff arms raising slowly overhead. I recovered very well after first surgery. Was playing softball five months after surgery. They work for me. Had my second non dominant shoulder reverse six weeks ago and started with phase 1 like last week. This time I struggle and need to stop much earlier with the stick and raising arm so, I stop before that discomfort comes. Ice and tylenol afterwards, infrared sauna at health club is great
