Rotator cuff tear?

Arthritis?

Meniscal tear?

Herniated disc?

What do you all of these things have in common? They can typically be treated non-operatively. In another blog post physical-therapy-its-much-more-than-exercise-and-massage-santa-cruz-ca.html, I wrote about what physical therapy is, and, I added a portion which talked about how rotator cuff tears can respond really well to non-operative management. Like, really well!!
