Innovative Treatment for Rotator Cuff Tears at Cedar Park Chiropractic and Acupuncture

At Cedar Park Chiropractic and Acupuncture in Cedar Park, TX, led by Dr. Jeff Swanson, we are introducing a groundbreaking approach to treating rotator cuff tears. The shoulder, a complex and versatile joint, relies heavily on the rotator cuff for movement and stability. When these crucial tendons and muscles are damaged, it can lead to significant pain and restriction in movement. SoftWave Therapy offers a promising alternative to traditional treatments.

The Anatomy of the Shoulder and Rotator Cuff

The rotator cuff consists of four muscles – the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. These muscles are essential for lifting, rotating, and moving the arm. However, they are prone to injuries, especially from repetitive overhead motions or sudden impacts.

Causes of Rotator Cuff Tears

• Overuse: Common in sports and repetitive arm movements.
• Trauma: Sudden impacts or falls.
• Age: Natural weakening of tendons over time.
• Degeneration: Chronic conditions like tendinitis.
• Poor Blood Flow: Affects the body's ability to repair tendons.

Traditional Treatments and Their Limitations

Typical treatments for rotator cuff tears include:

• Physical therapy for strengthening and flexibility.
• Pain medications for temporary relief.
• Surgical intervention, which carries risks and requires a long recovery.

While these methods can be effective, they often come with drawbacks, such as long recovery times and potential complications.
