Shoulder stretching tool is patented
Designed to increase internal and external rotation for a person who’s going through shoulder rehab, the Rotater has become the “go – to” shoulder prehab / rehab tool for athletes who want to stretch, strengthen and condition their shoulders for increased shoulder performance.

Bob Guthrie Tells Why He Became a Rotater Distributor
“Hi, I’m Bob Guthrie.
I have a genetic disposition to getting Frozen Shoulders (Adhesive Capsulitus) and I’m just coming out of my second one. The whole process takes 18-24 months and I have physio every week.
I’m a computer programmer and spend a lot of hours each day sitting, typing, mousing – all very counterproductive to my rehabilitation.
Recently I bought The Rotater and progress was immediate.
I keep it nearby and from time to time through the day spend a minute or so stretching, and strengthening the stabilisers.
I’m so happy with the results that I decided to help other Australians by stocking and supplying The Rotater and ancilliary products.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you.”

Opelika business product featured
The Rotater, created and marketed by area businessmen Scott Kay and Chris Melton and marketed by the Opelika company Joint Mechanix LLC, has been named “golf product of the month” by 1StopForGolf.com.
Shoulder rehab device is in the news
Kay, an avid motorcycle racer who has broken his shoulders three times, invented the rehabilitation and stretching device for shoulders.
After his last surgery, he wanted to speed up the rehabilitation process and found nothing available that could reproduce the sensations the he felt during physical therapy. He said that doctors and therapists encouraged him to patent the device after they saw what it did.
The device increases the shoulder’s range of motion by passively stretching the shoulder’s internal and external rotation. Kay said it increases the shoulder’s flexibility for sport-specific activities and can effectively warm up the shoulder before sporting events.
