I’m not a medical student, but a middle aged man with rotator cuff problems. This video is the best I’ve seen at helping me understand how the rotator cuff should work, and where my problems lie. Thank you!
Try using a “muscle scraper” using massage cream (‘Free Up’ brand is the best!) prior to any stretching or exercises. I recommend using a stainless steel massage tool (SIDEKICK brand or similar)since it has the best weight for doing the “work” for you. Do not “hammer” any muscles or tendons and stay off joints or enthesis where the tendon inserts to the bone. This will lengthen tissue and remove scatter tissue below the epidermis; unlocking motion. Don’t forget to use the muscle scraper behind and side of neck under jaw. Recommend increasing Vitamin C, bone broth, and gelatin with vitamin C (the mixture makes a “jello”); increase water content. Check out other foods that help tendons to heal. Another consideration is PRP with HA; or depending severity, age et al…consider injection of bone marrow stem cells. Absolutely no steroids! Hope this helps.
The use of the massage cream with massage tool should be a gentle application with long strokes as much as possible. Keeping in mind any areas above the heart should be downward strokes (as much as possible in, and around the shoulder,) and upward when below the heart. The application of the tool should be very carefully performed around the supraspinatus tendon as the tendon “ties” into the top of the humerus bone structure; being more “flattened” outward. Very difficult to differentiate the MTJ. After massage recommend only mobility sessions, then proceeding to functional sessions.
One of the best animated explanations of anything I've ever seen. I wish the folks who did this would also provide tutorials to explain other complicated topics in life as they are extremely adept at what they do.
Very pedagogical, superbly illustrated with clear, articulate voice, and moderate speed of speech, and explanations of the Latin expressions, that makes this video a precious tool for understanding the rotator cuff disorders. Great to use in class for first year OT, physiotherapy and sports sciences students! Hats off to this EXCELLENT video. Please, more of that.
My wife just had rotator cuff surgery and your model and clear explanation really helped to understand the structure and relation of the muscles and bone. Really love your explanations! thankyou
This is wonderful. I am a massage therapist, martial artist and yogi. It is so useful to learn about anatomy in such a clear, concise, and accessible way. For all you people healing from an injury, the key is increasing strength and flexibility, gradually and consistently. Our bodies are more resilient than you could ever imagine.
I recently went through my third surgery related to rotator cuff repair. One on the left and two on the right. For anyone who hasn't had a shoulder injury and associated pain, remember this, we use those muscles thousands of times a day. And if the injury and pain are severe enough, you will gladly have the surgery. Even with surgery and rehabilitation therapy, it can take months to heal. Please be careful with how you lift and pull. And if you do a lot of physical labor and or exercise, take breaks often to rest those muscles. As you get older it is easier to damage those muscles and the longer it takes to heal.
@@ManimalDetroit Too much hard physical labor. Repeated small tears that were never given a chance to heal properly and then suddenly a large tear that won't heal on it's own.
Good post Terry, appreciate the first hand account from an RC surgery recipient. I read something about a very high percentage of people over 70 have no use of the supraspinatus due to them being torn from what was described in this video. At about 53 years I tore my RH RC (in three places) about 4 years ago and didn't want surgery but got the bursa injection of cortisone and was able to continue with most things including weight lifting, albeit much lighter. But last 3 months I tore it again even worse (falling off the roof), so I am again looking at surgery. The surgeon during the consultation was fairly blase, saying it was a very straightforward operation and could almost be done in day surgery. I wasn't overly impressed with this slightly arrogant display of confidence without even seeing any scans.
@@montinaladine3264 Have the surgery. About three months to fully recover. Mine was day surgery followed up with therapy two days a week. I stopped heavy lifting completely. Ten pound weights only. As long as I don't overdo it, I'm mostly pain free. Find a surgeon that takes your concerns seriously. You will probably need to modify your life style a little, lol. Don't work so hard.
This was a fantastically, well put together rotator cuff tutorial. I also enjoyed how you added a summary diagram of the O, I, function, and nerve innervation at the end. Thank you for your excellent work!!
I got this in my recommendations today. Such clear and concise telling with an eloquence that had me enraptured all the way to the end! As a physiotherapist, this is an extremely helpful tool to teach my patients all they need to know when they come to me with shoulder complaints related to the rotator cuff and its most common injuries! Really well made!
I had a terrible torn rotator cuff from a really hard fall, whereas I could barely sleep for two months because of the constant excruciating pain, but I wanted to find a better way and I didn't want to take any pain killers, because of my stance on them. I found a highly qualified massage therapist that found the muscles and tendons, and so forth (tissue? ligaments?) were shortened and stuck together around my clavicle and triceps brachii, while also concentrated attention to the acromion ridge. There are lymph nodes in some of those places, like under the arm, that should not be overworked by massage so it's important to get someone who knows what they are doing. Along with this, I did an ancient Qi Gong, Ba Gua basic beginning exercise from a highly qualified master that I had learned years before, called, 'Serving Tea to the Master,' which involves moving scapula energy around, and I made a natural 100% quick recovery without any surgery or any other physical therapy. Wish I knew it from the onset avoiding the 2 month of agony and torment. I also used generous ice and arnica gel. This moving of the scapula energy, which can be achieved through other qigong, tai chi, and kung fu exercises and practices nicely, heals, treats, cures, and addresses a great many other maladies and injuries, including for the mind and the spirit. THE HEALER IS WITHIN!!
It really is incredible to me just how perfect the relationship is between shapes of the bones and the tendons, arteries, and muscles, etc. that attach to them.

Using the "F" word to describe a medical video shows a lack of education, maturity and social awareness. Your not commenting among friends after a few beers in a strip joint my friend.
I have recently had a bad fall which resulted in a three part proximal fracture of the humerus in my left arm. This tutorial as been SO useful for me to understand what is going on in my shoulder. "Knowledge is power", as the saying goes!
As a physiotherapist this tutorial is very much helpful to me, this video teaches us very clearly and provides a precise outlook of the Rotator cuff. thanks a lot.
I just got an MRI result with a supraspinatus tear, and watching this video has really helped me understand exactly where the pain is coming from and why. It's incredibly relieving to have a good understanding of the injury which is also allowing me to organize and put into practice a robust physio treatment which will hopefully lead to good recovery. Thank you again, very well explained and animated. It was particularly important to me to see the common injuries near the end of the video. I'll be referring colleagues who suffer similar injuries to this video and others in your library.
Hi I have pain in my left shoulder after over exercising at the gym, the pain now goes down on my left biceps and fingers ,so worried right now I am scared of surgery
Having Rotator Cuff Surgery in 3 days at Credit Valley in Toronto with Dr. Manolopoulis on my tennis serving shoulder. After years of tennis instructing and ski patrolling, I now have such insight into how this whole joint works, that I really wish I had before! 😅Thanks for the great instruction, on such a crucial part of the body!
Excellent video! I’ve been retired from Occupational Therapy for 18 years now, but I still love to refresh my knowledge of anatomy and physiology. I now have my own rotator cuff issues and came here to “brush up” on this information so I can begin my own therapy regimen at home. Thanks!
Great video! Having torn my supraspinatus completely off several years ago and fortunately having a great surgeon/Dr (Mark Frankle), I avoided surgery, but until this video, I never had a full appreciation of the injury, because a picture is worth a thousand words. Thank you.
I could NOT get my head around the rotator cuff in all my readings. This excellent animated presentation made it easy for even a dweeb like me to understand. It takes a lot of talent and hard work to make something so complicated to be be understandable by most people. My husband has a torn rotator cuff, and the technical report from his doctor was complete "Greek" to me! So, I googled a phrase in his report: "Acute full-thickness tear of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus with retraction to the mid humerus level," and this video came up.
I had a Titanium Humeral Ball installed in 2001 and was told that one of the muscles did not reattach. For 20 years I’ve been looking for a schematic like this one!
To think, all those wasted hours of coloring my anatomy book and still not learning the rotator cuff anatomy. I'm definitely a visual learner and this simplified everything. Well done, very helpful.
After I separated my shoulder years ago, I never start a workout without warming up my rotator cuff muscles; even if it isn't relevant. I still have a lot of issues with my supraspinatus though, so perhaps I should look into how freyed this old rope really is. Great breakdown overall, a lot of people could use something like this to help them prevent injury.
I think I tore a bit of my rotator cuff last year from throwing a football still hurts to this day I can do certain exercises but I cant do most due to pain in my shoulder, I cant lift much of anything over my shoulder.
Separated my shoulder years ago as well I never went to the doctor and ever since I had pain in my shoulder and now it’s given me neck pain and lower back pain and I’ve been in therapy for almost a year and I haven’t fully recovered yet or have a clue when I would be.
I suffer with my shoulders and your video has done more to explain the dynamics than anyone I’ve ever met in the pursuit of a solution. Yesterday, my Son tore his trapezius in the middle of his back, so I’ve subscribed and hope to find what he needs within your video portfolio. Many thanks
Stumbled across this channel and delighted to have found it. Clear and detailed, but at the same time accessible, teaching, perfect for my needs as a non medically trained person looking to increase my understanding of anatomy. Thank you!!
I love your videos. They have been so helpful for learning anatomy. Idk if it's just me but the quick movements of the animation is hard to look it. It's a little jarring. However I am eternally grateful for all free information you have provided. Thanks!
Man this is amazingnly presented and so well made. I really hope that all past videos in this channel from many years ago that have to do with muscles and joints are remade in the style of this particular video. Again, fantastic job, this video is for me the definitive way of presenting anatomy.
Really excellent presentation, thanks for making! I already had a basic understanding from first year anatomy but this gave me a higher level of understanding regarding naming and movement. The only thing I would have liked to have seen more of would be extra info and diagrammatic presentation of various injuries of all of the muscles of the RC, not just the Supraspinatus. Plus various levels of injury such as partial tears to full thickness tears and nerve damage and what movements these compromise and what effects they can have on the whole joint musculature. And how the body compensates etc. But maybe these details have been covered in other AZ videos.
Thankyou, im training to be a pilates instructor and this helps a lot ! im supposed to already know all the anatomy but i dont so these videos are helping me catch up !
I thought I'm dreaming when I saw the new video starting 😍❤ Misssssss youuuuuuu alooooot Keep in touch with new video And please show us your face 😭 I'm sure it's as beautiful as your voice 😍 Love you so much From Iraq 😁
Thank you for the excellent tutorial explaining shoulder anatomy, operation, and appropriate terms. It provided a valuable interface between my radiology report and my appointment with a surgeon.
Based on my own experience, rotator cuff rehab exercises (mostly range-of-motion with light resistance) will help by keeping the muscles active and strengthening to avoid future injury. Don’t do anything that risks re-injury or causes pain, and don’t mask the pain with anti-inflammatories or analgesics. Also, be patient; the injury will heal with the passage of time.
You need a diagnosis of which muscle/tissues in that area are injured, in order to know which stretches and exercises are necessary for you. The four different muscles in the rotator cuff have different functions and pull/move the humerus in different directions. So it really depends on which one is bothering you. Rotator cuff muscles also aren't the only tissues there as the deltoid group and pectorals also attach at the humerus, among others. Lot of different things it could be. Have a PT examine it would be my advice 😉
Don't ask for advice on the internet mate. What if someone tells you to do exercises that will make the problem worse? Go to a physiotherapist to evaluate your injury.
Love this channel! I don't have a background in anatomy or physiology but the narrator explains things in a very clear, concise manner which makes it easier to understand. My only suggestion is to increase the volume of these videos. I have the volume on my laptop turned all the way up and when I'm listening to this in a busy environment it is difficult to hear.
I'm so excited you're back and this new video is up!! You've helped me through 2 science degrees! Please continue making content - anatomy zone is the best!
Yep I did 3 out of 4 the biggest biceps tendon was retracted 50 mm ,so in reality it was massive tear but I managed to get nearly all movement back through many many hours days weeks months now into years of rehab it’s a very terrible terrible painful injury but with time it’s possible to get through most of the pain points, but it will never ever come back fully after such injury does occur. I am so glad to see this vid as it made a lot of sense given my injury tear and the subsequent rehab undertaken. Thank you for posting.
After watching countless video's, thank you for clearing up why the arm hurts when there is a rotator cuff issue. And understanding the relationship and function of each of the four muscles is noteworthy. Thank you!
I have always had a layman's curiosity about how the arm works and what the infamous "rotator cuff" is. This was beautifully illustrated/animated and explained. Thanks!
Im so thankful that i found this channel. It helps a lot to refresh knowledge and it's very precise, concrete and well explained. Definitely better than school😊
Are you kidding? It's a gawd damn mess in there. One of the most complex yet weak collection of muscles in the body. Shoulders are a shit show The designer needs sacking pronto 😉
Brilliant description on how the shoulder works especially how shoulder injuries occur, especially now I have just found out I have torn my rotator cuff
excellent! If I had had such a lesson during my school days in India learning would have made more sense and definitely interesting. I now have a clear layout in my head about the diff bits of the RC and understand which bits are hurting.
Yeah really, when you start watching at all that is in the heart you see that everything is conected and work with each other, its beautiful in some weird way.
I had en encounter with Jesus last year. He is coming soon. He wants to have a relationship with you. Jesus: I am The Good Shepard and know my sheep, and they know my voice. May God bless you.
Fantastic video. I have just had surgery to repair a supraspinatus tear and correct impingement following a mountain bike accident. Years of plastering has had a degenerative effect on my shoulder. Thankfully I am no longer in the trade and hoping for a full recovery.
Just discovered that I have the mentioned injury in a beginning stage, while my father has in a very advanced stage that is very annoying unpredictable pain. thank you so much!
Came across your video's from doing a search to find out about my shoulder impingement injury which I'm trying to deal with. Well done on creating superb content!
Amazing video, can't thank you enough for creating this. I have been studying anatomy for my circus training and this explanation and visual demonstration is exactly what I have been looking for. Thank you.
Excellent video of why both of my shoulders don't work/pain now with 2 full width torn muscles & arthritis in the right & 1 full width tear in the left shoulder. Surgery to clean up both shoulders has help a bit but still have pain up my neck with limited strength & movement.

finally the best presentation of the rotator cuff, volume is kinda low. overall it's the best

Man this is amazingnly presented and so well made. I really hope that all past videos in this channel from many years ago that have to do with muscles and joints are remade in the style of this particular video. Again, fantastic job, this video is for me the definitive way of presenting anatomy.
Really excellent presentation, thanks for making! I already had a basic understanding from first year anatomy but this gave me a higher level of understanding regarding naming and movement. The only thing I would have liked to have seen more of would be extra info and diagrammatic presentation of various injuries of all of the muscles of the RC, not just the Supraspinatus. Plus various levels of injury such as partial tears to full thickness tears and nerve damage and what movements these compromise and what effects they can have on the whole joint musculature. And how the body compensates etc. But maybe these details have been covered in other AZ videos.
Thankyou, im training to be a pilates instructor and this helps a lot ! im supposed to already know all the anatomy but i dont so these videos are helping me catch up !
I thought I'm dreaming when I saw the new video starting 😍❤
Misssssss youuuuuuu alooooot
Keep in touch with new video
And please show us your face 😭
I'm sure it's as beautiful as your voice 😍
Love you so much

Thank you for the excellent tutorial explaining shoulder anatomy, operation, and appropriate terms. It provided a valuable interface between my radiology report and my appointment with a surgeon.
Welcome back to RUclips.
Excellent presentation. After 3 surgeries - I FINALLY know what is going on at the rotator cuff
This is exactly what I feel in my shoulder; any tips on how to heal/rehabilitate those parts in the rotator cuff?
Search for Rotator Cuff rehab with bands. You will get links like this:-
www.ouh.nhs.uk/patient-guide/leaflets/files/5319Ptheraband.pdf
Based on my own experience, rotator cuff rehab exercises (mostly range-of-motion with light resistance) will help by keeping the muscles active and strengthening to avoid future injury. Don’t do anything that risks re-injury or causes pain, and don’t mask the pain with anti-inflammatories or analgesics. Also, be patient; the injury will heal with the passage of time.
You need a diagnosis of which muscle/tissues in that area are injured, in order to know which stretches and exercises are necessary for you. The four different muscles in the rotator cuff have different functions and pull/move the humerus in different directions. So it really depends on which one is bothering you. Rotator cuff muscles also aren't the only tissues there as the deltoid group and pectorals also attach at the humerus, among others. Lot of different things it could be. Have a PT examine it would be my advice 😉
Don't ask for advice on the internet mate. What if someone tells you to do exercises that will make the problem worse? Go to a physiotherapist to evaluate your injury.
@@joji_okami lmao that’d be a mega villain move
Love this channel! I don't have a background in anatomy or physiology but the narrator explains things in a very clear, concise manner which makes it easier to understand. My only suggestion is to increase the volume of these videos. I have the volume on my laptop turned all the way up and when I'm listening to this in a busy environment it is difficult to hear.
I'm so excited you're back and this new video is up!! You've helped me through 2 science degrees! Please continue making content - anatomy zone is the best!

Yep I did 3 out of 4 the biggest biceps tendon was retracted 50 mm ,so in reality it was massive tear but I managed to get nearly all movement back through many many hours days weeks months now into years of rehab it’s a very terrible terrible painful injury but with time it’s possible to get through most of the pain points, but it will never ever come back fully after such injury does occur. I am so glad to see this vid as it made a lot of sense given my injury tear and the subsequent rehab undertaken.
Thank you for posting.
Very very good,perfect in my humble opinion.15/10

This video is best I needed to understand what actually my supraspinnatus tendinopathy was and why still I haven't recovered from it. Nice job.
I wish I had this when I was PT school (25 years ago). This would have helped so much; regardless, excellent video !

After watching countless video's, thank you for clearing up why the arm hurts when there is a rotator cuff issue. And understanding the relationship and function of each of the four muscles is noteworthy. Thank you!
great explanation , the animation was also great
ruclips.net/video/80SFQtDQMsA/видео.html ...
I have always had a layman's curiosity about how the arm works and what the infamous "rotator cuff" is. This was beautifully illustrated/animated and explained. Thanks!
This was just brilliant! I am a smarter person because of you today. Thank you.
You are so good ,you should be awarded as the best teacher.

I injured my rotator cuff, you're never the same again. So take care of it.
It’s hurts so bad
Never.
With time and correct rehab program, you can and should be able to come back to normal.
@@yourbadful Did u have to have surgery?
@@yourbadful What long term effects do u have from it pain and redused mobility?
Im so thankful that i found this channel. It helps a lot to refresh knowledge and it's very precise, concrete and well explained. Definitely better than school😊
This is amazing! All these mechanisms levers and systems. Its almost like alot of thought went into designing them😉
Are you kidding? It's a gawd damn mess in there. One of the most complex yet weak collection of muscles in the body. Shoulders are a shit show
The designer needs sacking pronto 😉

You are the best!
Thank you.
So well made.

excellent! If I had had such a lesson during my school days in India learning would have made more sense and definitely interesting. I now have a clear layout in my head about the diff bits of the RC and understand which bits are hurting.
Excellent! Very didactic video. I hope to see more videos like this in your channel, they´re great!

Yeah really, when you start watching at all that is in the heart you see that everything is conected and work with each other, its beautiful in some weird way.

Fantastic video. I have just had surgery to repair a supraspinatus tear and correct impingement following a mountain bike accident. Years of plastering has had a degenerative effect on my shoulder. Thankfully I am no longer in the trade and hoping for a full recovery.

Just discovered that I have the mentioned injury in a beginning stage, while my father has in a very advanced stage that is very annoying unpredictable pain. thank you so much!
Love this. I got the concept after so many years.
Came across your video's from doing a search to find out about my shoulder impingement injury which I'm trying to deal with. Well done on creating superb content!

Amazing video, can't thank you enough for creating this. I have been studying anatomy for my circus training and this explanation and visual demonstration is exactly what I have been looking for. Thank you.
Excellent video of why both of my shoulders don't work/pain now with 2 full width torn muscles & arthritis in the right & 1 full width tear in the left shoulder.
Surgery to clean up both shoulders has help a bit but still have pain up my neck with limited strength & movement.
