Shoulder
What is the rotator cuff?
The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that support the shoulder and scapula. They are the prime movers of the humerus, or upper arm bone, into rotation. Another prime function of the rotator cuff muscles are to 'drop the humerus down' in the joint and allow abduction; the arm movement laterally away from the body. The four muscles are: Subscapularis, Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus and Teres Minor.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
A Front Office staff member went to bat for me one morning when I arrived for PT but my approved plan had not. The staff member called the physician office and insisted on talking to a "live" person and finally it was all straightened out. I am most grateful that this person went the extra mile to help me.
