Rotator Cuff Physiotherapy in New Meldan

Understanding Rotator Cuff Problems

Rotator cuff problems involve the group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint, helping to stabilise and move the shoulder. These conditions commonly cause pain, weakness and restricted movement, and can develop from injury, overuse or age-related changes. Physiotherapy can help manage symptoms and restore function.
