Exercises to Support Rotator Cuff Recovery After Laser Therapy

Following laser therapy for a rotator cuff injury, specific exercises can be beneficial in further supporting the healing process. Here are a few to consider:

• Pendulum Swing: Lean forward, allowing the affected arm to hang down. Gently swing the arm in small circles to promote mobility.
• Shoulder Blade Squeeze: Sit or stand with your arms at your sides. Squeeze your shoulder blades together, hold for a few seconds, and release.
• Arm Slide: Stand with your back against a wall, and slowly slide your arms up above your head, keeping your back and arms flat against the wall.

Incorporating these exercises into your recovery regimen can help strengthen the shoulder, improve flexibility, and reduce the risk of future injuries.
