The Rotator Cuff:
From Tendon Loading to Precision Rehabilitation

Resistance exercise works for people with rotator cuff conditions - but increased strength isn't always the reason why. So what exercises should we be prescribing?
In this webinar Dr Angela Cadogan presents how to move beyond generic loading programmes and improve your exercise selection and outcomes for people with rotator cuff conditions.
Study time: 1 learning hour
Access: 12 months
What are you trying to change?

Patients with rotator cuff-conditions differ in what is driving pain, disability and loss of function, yet rehabilitation often defaults to similar, generic strengthening programmes.
This webinar challenges that approach and shows how to identify subgroups of patients with different rehabilitation priorities.
From “Which Exercise” to “Precision Rehabilitation”.
Start with the rehabilitation target - then choose the intervention
By the end of the webinar, you will be able to:
Understand rotator cuff function and tendon adaptation.
Identify key drivers of pain and disability.
Prioritise rehabilitation for different clinical presentations.
Match your intervention to the target mechanism.
Select outcome measures that reflect the rehabilitation goal.

A shift in clinical thinking
From “Which Exercise” to “Precision Rehabilitation”. The focus is not on adding more exercises to your toolkit. It is on improving the clinical decisions that come before exercise selection.
Start with the rehabilitation target — then choose the intervention.
