WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR?

This intensive 24 week exercise program is to help people effectively recover and rehabilitate following shoulder injury or shoulder surgery. It covers injuries such as rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, tendinopathies, SLAP / labral injuries, acromioclavicular injury, as well as full shoulder reconstruction surgery, dislocations and frozen shoulder. It also covers problems associated with shoulder injury such as scapula winging and incorrect scapulo-humeral movement dysfunction, helping correct these problems with the right exercises for control and stability, not just strengthening and conditioning.

The program covers people just coming out of surgery and still in a sling, who will start at week 1. People who have not had surgery, but who are suffering from a shoulder injury will start further into the program at stage 3 (week 7). As with the other rehab programs there are weekly educational videos with advice on time-frames, exercise instruction, demonstration of patient presentations, what not to do and what TO do.

This program is written by Tim Keeley - who has had first-hand experience with a full shoulder reconstruction himself, so you can be assured have all the newest and most effective exercises and protocols to help you recover.

WHY IS SHOULDER REHAB SO IMPORTANT?

The shoulder can be one of the most painful, frustrating and difficult regions of the body to rehabilitate. Pain, injuries and surgery require specific stabilisation, motor control and strengthening work that is simply not achieved with conventional fitness and training exercises.

Shoulder injuries also take a long time to get better, and most don't do well due to poor or minimal strengthening exercises, or simply not spending enough time doing the rehab. Many people do some little exercises from the Physio, or only gym weights and they never get it much better. A structured rehab program ensures that you complete the right exercises and the right amount to improve the strength and movement of the shoulder.

Following a set program also keeps you on track, motivated to complete the volume of exercises right through from the low level activation work to lifting above your head, bridging the gap from physio rehab exercises to gym weights and sport. This program helps you achieve that with a series of clinically proven, tried and tested exercises, along with the highest quality expert advice and education.

In this 24 week program you will be shown all the exercises and mobility work that is needed, with detailed instructions, videos of the exercises and weekly videos of patients just like you, who are going through the same stage each week. The videos help you keep motivated, inspired and on track through your rehabilitation journey, to help you get pain-free, return to physical exercise and back into sport.
