Rotator Cuff Tendonitis – Symptoms, Causes, Treatments

Physical Therapy

In many cases, the doctor might refer you to a professional physical therapist. In general, physical therapy includes many passive and stretching exercises. They help restore basic function and improve the strength of your tendons. This subsequently alleviates pain and discomfort caused by rotator cuff tendonitis. Once the pain is subsided, a physical therapist will show you how to regain strength in the shoulder and arm. [7]
