How to Handle Shoulder Stiffness After Rotator Cuff Surgery

Home News & Videos How to Handle Shoulder Stiffness After Rotator Cuff Surgery

If you’ve just had rotator cuff surgery, your arm movements will most likely feel restricted. If not managed or rehabilitated properly, this restriction can make basic self-care and daily routines feel much more difficult.

In this video, we show how this simple forward bend technique may help ease that restriction so you can maintain independence while keeping your surgical arm protected. Give it a shot if your surgeon or physical therapist has cleared you for gentle motion.

If your shoulder pain and stiffness feel difficult to manage post-surgery, book an appointment with JAG PT. Our physical therapists can help you safely regain movement, strength, and confidence as you work toward getting back to your everyday activities.
