High Intensity Laser Therapy for Rotator Cuff Tears

What is the rotator cuff? And what should be done in the case of an injury? Do I have to get surgery? Join Kristi and Dr. Rountree as they explain the function of the shoulder rotator cuff, how to catch an injury early, and how to properly address the injury so that you may avoid surgery. Learn about the importance of exercise and strengthening in order to protect the rotator cuff structures, and how laser therapy and PRP injections can help with the healing process vs. corticosteroid injections.
