Bankart Repair | Improving Shoulder Girdle Strength | Part 1

Here is a patient who underwent rotator cuff (supraspinatus) and Bankart lesion repair 4 months ago.

Her strength continues to improve every week. There are strength and range of motion deficits based on post-operative restrictions to protect the integrity of the repairs. Lifting with resistance is not recommended for 12 weeks.

This video captures four exercises to improve her shoulder girdle strength. She performs three pulling movements (row, T, and Y) for periscapular strengthening and one pressing movement.

Effective and efficient rehab is criterion-based, not time-based.

Always consult your physician before beginning any exercise program. STOP exercising if you experience any symptoms of weakness, unsteadiness, light-headedness/dizziness, chest pain or pressure, nausea, or shortness of breath.

Performing these exercises should not cause pain. If you experience pain while exercising, decrease the speed of your movement. If the pain persists - STOP. Mild soreness after exercising may be experienced after beginning a new exercise.

Do you have any videos for early stages of PT after surgery? The description says the patient is 4 months out. I’m only 1.5 months out so I’m not quite ready for this exercise haha. Don’t want to over exert.

I no longer have medical insurance, so I have stopped going to physical therapy. I’m about 3 months into the recovery process, what can I do at home to recover as best as I can?
