Rotator Cuff Injury Rehab at Premier Care Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation

Rotator cuff injuries—such as tendinitis, partial tears, or full-thickness tears—are common in athletes who perform overhead motions like throwing, swimming, or serving. These injuries can lead to shoulder pain, weakness, and limited movement. At Premier Care, we help athletes recover safely and regain full shoulder function through customized rehab programs.

What Are Rotator Cuff Injuries?

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. These tissues can become irritated from overuse (tendinitis) or damaged from a fall or repetitive stress (tear). Common signs include pain with lifting, reduced strength, and trouble reaching overhead.
