Treating Rotator Cuff Injuries
Rotator cuff injuries are a common problem for athletes and other active individuals. Injuries can occur in a variety of ways, such as overuse due to repetitive motions, falls, and contact sports. Other common causes of rotator cuff injuries include poor posture, a lack of strength and flexibility, and lifting heavy objects. At Bodywork by Benna, we specialize in treating these types of injuries and helping our clients get back to a healthy lifestyle.
The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles and tendons that provide stability and mobility to the shoulder joint. When these muscles and tendons are injured, it can lead to pain, weakness, and loss of range of motion in the shoulder. Fortunately, there are treatments available to help reduce pain and improve range of motion. One natural and effective treatment for rotator cuff injuries is massage therapy, using a variety of techniques to help reduce pain and improve range of motion. These techniques include Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and muscle energy technique.
At Bodywork by Benna, we understand how important it is to treat rotator cuff injuries as soon as possible. Our massage therapists work individually with each client to develop a customized treatment plan that will help them achieve their goals. We also offer self-care education, so you can learn how to take care of your injury at home.
