| A bit pricey, but has some decent rotator cuff exercises by Reenie (VA) 3 Stars July 08, 2009 Some of this is a bit bogged down in details, but generally offered some good exercise routines for rehab of rotator cuff. The trick is to keep up with the exercises and pay attention to the correct technique if you want to see improvement.
| | Good book by Orsolya Kiss (Michigan) 4 Stars February 08, 2009 My husband has pain in his shoulder, so he borrowed this book from his co-worker and started doing the exercises. Within a week, he felt better. So, I ordered the book. It is great.
| | Saved my shoulders by reviewer46032 5 Stars June 26, 2008 I had a lot of pain in my right shoulder from impingement. The stretches and exercises in this book helped tremendously. The knowledge I gained on range of motion and adaptive shortening was what I needed. I now do a slightly different exercise routine but still use the same stretches.
| | Works Fast! by Douglas Setter (Vancouver, BC, Canada) 5 Stars April 02, 2008 This is a well-written, highly under-rated book on preventing or rehabilitating shoulder injuries. It helps if you have some anatomy background for understanding the how's and why's of shoulder injuries. Otherwise, just follow the advice and exercises.
I have used the exercises and yes, they work. Worth every penny.

| | Outdated Info. by a trainer 5 Stars November 21, 2007 Readers need to be aware that this book was written by a chiropractor over 18 years ago. While copies are still being printed, they are still 1st editions and thus contain info from the late 80's. If any new info is added, then its called a 2nd edition, which there isn't one yet.
This is NOT good if one is looking for the latest rotator cuff treatments because medical information is constantly changing all the time as new studies are done. Case in point, this book does not include the sidelying abduction exercise which has been recently found to be one of the safest and most effective exercises for the supraspinatus muscle, the most frequently torn cuff muscle. The sidelying abd. exercise does not grind your cuff tendons down further and cause more damage like some of the older exercises once taught like the "empty-can" exercise.
The book does cover some basic anatomy and function of the rotator cuff however. Also, be aware that as you progress through the levels in the various routines, you're sure going to be spending a lot more than just "7 minutes" doing exercises that involve either dumbells or a pulley system. Readers interested in other rotator cuff books might also want to check out Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff.
