Welcome to Dr. Matthew Boes’s Shoulder Rehabilitation video series. This video is designed to help maximize your recovery following shoulder surgery/arthroscopy. The goal of our Phase 2 program for shoulder rehabilitation is to regain normal shoulder motion in all directions. Remember the following as you engage in Phase 2 shoulder rehab exercises:
Use the opposite arm to help move the affected arm via pulley or stick
Try to avoid “hiking” of the shoulder; keep shoulder blades down and level during motion
Start at one set of 12-15 reps and progress to 2 sets
Conduct exercises 2-3 times daily
Equipment needed may include a stick or cane, pulley, resistance bands and light dumbbells

The following shoulder strengthening exercises, which are demonstrated in this video, should be conducted during phase 2 of your shoulder rehab:
PULLEYS – ELEVATION
PULLEYS – ABDUCTION
STICK UPRIGHT – ELEVATION
STICK UPRIGHT – ABDUCTION
STICK UPRIGHT – EXTERNAL ROTATION @ ZERO DEGREE
STICK UPRIGHT – EXTERNAL ROTATION @ 90 DEGREES
STICK UPRIGHT – INTERNAL ROTATION BEHIND BACK

Icing is very important after each therapy session, so be sure to place an ice pack or cooling pad on the affected shoulder for 10 minutes to help limit any irritation from exercise. If the shoulder joint is stiff, try using moist heat for 10 minutes prior to exercise to help loosen things up.

This video should not be used as a substitute for regular physical therapy visits and guidance from your physician. Only progress from one phase to the next based on recommendation from your physician. Most therapy regimens, particularly after shoulder surgery, are based on a healing timeline. Progressing too quickly, even though it may feel okay at first, may put you at risk for injury. Regular physical therapy visits are valuable for giving you feedback on your progress and helping to ensure you are doing exercises properly. If you develop any questions or concerns regarding your condition while using this video, contact your physician. Best of luck in your recovery from shoulder surgery.
