Description

This handbook is the result of the countless conversations I've had with my patients about their rotator cuff injuries and other common shoulder problems. Their desire to understand their injury and the how to heal from that injury is the inspiration for this handbook. I've written it in everyday language to convey basic terms and concepts. As such, it is a simplification; yet it is from these basic, simple concepts that injuries are best understood. Understanding the basics of your injury, the treatment, and the process of healing, will help you to ease your anxiety and focus your energy on getting well. This book is the bridge to the basic concepts and treatment principles that you must learn and understand in order to have a meaningful conversation with your doctor. There are many ways to treat shoulder pain and injuries. There are numerous books for patients published on the rotator cuff by chiropractors, physical therapists, and yoga teachers. Yet there are none published by shoulder surgeons for their patients. My goal for each and every patient is that he or she heals and gets back to all the activities in his or her life in the safest, most efficient way. Many times that is not surgery. However, in rotator cuff problems, particularly tendon tears, surgery at some point is very often the correct tool to help patients return to their previous level of activity. Most patients will follow a very predictable path as they heal from their injury. I call it the "Rotator Cuff Pathway." When patients understand the basics of their injury and the treatment, there is much less fear and anxiety. Most find the predictability of the pathway reassuring. Then they are free to focus their energy on healing and getting well. I hope this book helps you with understanding your injury and speeds you to recovery. Paul B. Roache, MD

Description

Shoulder disorders are the most common musculoskeletal complaints and rotator cuffs disorders are recognized as the most common cause of shoulderpain and dysfunction. Rotator cuff disorders can be treated nonsurgically, however if non-responsive to treatment, surgery may be required. Despite the generally favorable results, rotator cuff surgery is associated with complications including infections, nerve injuries, anesthetic complications, unrelated medical complications, as well as failure of rotator cuff healing. In this monagraph experts have reviewed the most common complications.

Description

(SIZE 2, M/L, for people who stand up to 6' tall and weigh up to 200 lbs)

The ShoulderHorn is for anyone who desires to eliminate shoulder pain and significantly improve their shoulder strength in any sport.

Shoulder pain and weakness is due to muscular imbalances caused by repetitive activities with your shoulder. Throwing a baseball, swinging a tennis racket, benching a barbell, are examples.

This repetitive activity causes your upper arm to shift out of position in the shoulder joint. This presses against nearby nerves and the shoulder muscles. This pressure and constricted blood flow erodes the strength of the muscles in your ROTATOR CUFF.

Gradually shoulder strength erodes and shoulder pain begins.

CORRECT THIS MUSCULAR IMBALANCE WITH A SIMPLE & EFFECTIVE REHABILITATION PROGRAM!

The cure is to counter this imbalance.

The structure of your shoulder can be moved back to its natural position with basic stretching exercises and by strengthening your ROTATOR CUFF with the SHOULDERHORN.

The ShoulderHorn locks your shoulders and arms in the safest and most effective position for "abducted external rotation". This trains your rotator cuff to respond to the greatest load during lifting, throwing, and overhead motions.

Many athletes have used the ShoulderHorn to successfully to treat their pain and return to their sport.

The ShoulderHorn is especially popular with weightlifters to INCREASE THEIR BENCH PRESS.

Use the ShoulderHorn with a pair of hand-held weights. As low as 2 lbs for beginners to as high as 20 lbs. for experienced athletes. A small medicine ball or even a can of soup can provide suitable resistance if dumbbells aren't available.

Features

• SIZE 2, Medium/Large, is for people who stand up to 6' tall and weigh up to 200 lbs
• Locks your shoulder and arms to train/rehabilitate the shoulder in an "abducted external rotation" which trains your shoulders to work against great loads like lifting, throwing, and other overhead motions common in many sports.
• Designed so the weight of the upper arm is supported in the correct position, which isolates and strengthens primarily the muscles of rotator cuff, which is critical to strength and rehabilitation of the shoulder.
• Constructed of a single length of formed steel tubing, and is covered in dense foam padding making it extremely strong but VERY LIGHT IN WEIGHT (under 3 lbs).
• University study showed the ShoulderHorn was MORE EFFECTIVE for increasing external rotator strength than using dumbbells alone. ("Effects of the Shoulder horn and Lightweight Dumbbell Training on Shoulder External Rotators," published by Journal of Physcial Therapy Science.)
