Repetitive Activity, From Low Impact Activities

Repetitive activity, from low impact activities (e.g., quilting) to high impact activities (e.g., lifting heavy items at work or home) can put unnecessary strain on the body. This can cause the muscles in the shoulder, specifically the rotator cuff, to become strained. Physical therapy can help correct posture, improve muscular imbalance and aid the muscle healing itself in a more effective manner.
