Meet the Rotater inventor and the Rotater is front page news

Shoulder performance is important. Every time you:
- push
- pull
- reach overhead
- lift
- carry
- swing a baseball bat or tennis racket
- swim
- drive a nail
- serve or spike a volleyball
- throw a baseball, softball, football, javelin or anything else
- do a bench press, shoulder press or chin-up
…your shoulder is being called on to “carry” the load. Injuries abound. I’ve experienced everything from a torn rotater cuff to a full-blown separation requiring extensive surgery. As a person who has spent most of his life involved in athletics, I was thrilled when Scott Kay first described his invention to me.
Simple is best
Scott has the ability to get outside the box and view things in their simplest terms. He has invented and improved a number of different devices, but the Rotater is the one that I am most excited about.
This video was filmed during an interview for an article (Pair hope patients turn to ROTATER) that featured the Rotater and took place on December 4th at the Montgomery Advertiser offices in Montgomery Alabama.

Front Page News
On December 6th, Scott and I were interviewed by Don Prater of the Auburn-Opelika News. Don had heard about two industrial mechanics who were receiving quite a bit of attention from physical therapists, athletic trainers and athletes due to a shoulder rehabilitation and stretching device that they had invented and were marketing.
We spent about an hour answering Don’s questions and taking a few pictures. At the conclusion, Don told us that the article would probably land in the “Lifestyle or Living” section of the Sunday paper.
We were completely (and happily) surprised to discover that we had been featured on the front page of Friday’s (Dec 7, 2007) edition of the Auburn-Opelika News. Read the article – Local inventor revolutionizes rehab
More to come
The Rotater has attracted the attention of several media outlets – from daily print to monthly magazines to television. Though simple in design, the Rotater is proving to everyone who uses it why it’s becoming so popular.
