Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff It works. – N. Johnson – North Carolina
I bought this book in the hopes of avoiding the cost$ of physical therapy. I followed the book to a T and my pain is mostly gone. It’s not overnight, the progress is gradual.

The first thing I really noticed was that I didn’t have pain getting dressed. This happened about a week or two into it.

After about three weeks, I experienced less pain during my everyday movements. Eventually, I was able to get back to physical activity. It’s been about 3 months now and I’m doing great.

I had a glitch recently when I went swimming and experienced pain – probably b/c a swimming stroke isn’t an activity I’ve done since last summer. I’m using the techniques I learned from the book to try and exercise the muscles that I use swimming.

You do have to keep up the exercises in order to not slip back into tendonitis or whatever’s bugging you. I learned this when I got a nasty cold for a couple of weeks. But it doesn’t take long at all. If you just want pain relief, you can get it in about 10-15 minutes twice a week. If you want to be physically active – 30 minutes 2-3 times a week. Easy to do while just watching TV.

(And no, I’m not related to the author despite our same last name :)
Treat your own rotator… review – Tom Bodle –
This is an excellent book. I was 55 and physically active (weights and running) when I experienced almost spontaneously pain (quite bothersome) in the arm when reaching. Using this book, the stretching and especially weight training exercises recommended were very helpful. My arm has returned to 98.75% of normal. Kudos to the author.
Can’t recommend this book enough! – N. Kodjak –
I second Stilt’s review, the only difference being that I was lucky enough not to have any money or insurance so I couldn’t afford to get surgery and rehab. Instead I bought Johnson’s book and 6 months or so later, my shoulder was 98% healed!!
I can say, without exaggeration, that Johnson gave me my life back! As anyone with a serious rotator cuff injury knows, it is more than a just a shoulder problem. Your whole life starts to go downhill. You can’t sleep, takes an hour to get dressed or undressed, have a hard time showering, shaving, or brushing your teeth, hell, I used to have to pick up my arm to shake someone’s hand!
: Based entirely on research from peer-reviewed journals and randomized controlled trials, Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff is a complete program to prevent and rehabilitate rotator cuff injuries for athletes and non-athletes alike. In less than 100 pages, readers will learn precisely how the rotator cuff works, what can go wrong with it, and then are guided step-by-step through an evidence-based program that takes just minutes a week to complete. Drawing from the latest rotator cuff research, Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff will be especially useful for those who have been diagnosed with either a partial or full-thickness rotator cuff tear, experience shoulder pain, do upper body weight lifting, play a sport or have a job that involves repeated arm motions above shoulder level, have been diagnosed with “impingement syndrome,” or for anyone simply wanting a healthy and properly functioning rotator cuff.
