How To Regain Shoulder Range of Motion
December 21, 2011
We have great customers who want to share their shoulder rehab stories. Here’s an email from two-time World Champion powerlifter, Pat Susco, who had extensive shoulder surgery in 2010.
Pat, who is 60, also sent a link to this video of himself doing weighted dips….incredible! Here’s the video and below it you can read Pat’s Rotater testimonial:
Pat Susco’s Rotater Testimonial
..hey guys sent you an email off your website, not sure if it went thru…..anyway, a video of my shouders working 100% @ 60 yrs. old thanks to the Rotater …..wow, what great news ! ……what I did forget to mention was that the people who train in my “home gym” are also big Rotater fans and in fact I`m still waiting for one of them to return my Rotater dvd…..In short I`ve had 2 left shouder surgeries and rebounded well after the first in `94….however, the second in 2010 was much slower to respond , possibly because I was now 59. It was also a more extensive procedure with repair to a torn rotater cuff, torn labrum and the shaving of my clavicle. After a year of self rehab I was still quite limited on what movements I could do, the weight I could use and my limited ROM.
Then by chance, surfing the net for “new” shoulder rehab ideas I came across the video for the “Rotater” and was amazed by it`s versatility. I had already purchased a “shoulder horn” and loved it , however, it was limited to one movement. I purchased my “Rotater” from “Lifting Large” which is pretty prominent in the powerlifting community. I watched the video and was blown away by how many aspects of the shoulder the Rotater hit. Using it religiously 3x a week (on both shoulders !) in conjunction with my training, I regained full ROM , was pain free and even doing weighted dips !….My biggest concern now (having a powerlifters “more is better” mind set) is the discipline to continue to train smart and cycle my training to allow for “light days” and recuperation from the “heavy days” !
I should mention that along with now being 60, I`m a 2x IPA World Champion (`93 & `95 ) and multi-time masters champion (55-59) with an official squat of 920lbs. and deadlift of 745lbs. both done while in my forties.

Shoulder Rehab Tool Needs a “Love It” Button

This is a short testimonial taken from the Rotater Facebook page. It was posted by Jon Tyre on Dec. 7, 2010. If you want to stay up to date with the latest shoulder rehab information, then join the Rotater community on Facebook…you’ll be glad you did.
Jon Tyre
It’s things like The Rotater that make me wish there was a “love it” button. I have had three surgeries on my shoulder and nothing seemed to help. PT had it’s limits – at least my therapist did so I set out in search of something I could do at home. Since The Rotater, although I don’t have it all back (yet) my range of motion has increased significantly! It is worth every penny!
Shoulder Rehab After Bankhart Surgery
April 29, 2011
The following testimonial is from Derek Winship. Derek purchased his Rotater prior to having shoulder surgery to repair a Bankhart lesion.
Bankhart Surgery Rehab with the Rotater
“I had open Bankheart shoulder surgery on dec 2. I did try it a few times before that tho. I started PT on dec 20 and after doing a couple rounds of PT I know now that every exercise they do at the doc is replicated and actually guided by the Rotater. So I have been using to do my home exercises while still going to the PT. Doc says all my range of motion is really good except for external rotation. I’ve been working with the Rotater on that but doc says not to push it too far until it’s fully healed. So far tho I’m super pleased with it. I think I’m going to use it on my good side too so I don’t get a popeye looking arm one one side and keep them equal. Thanks for making the Rotater and following up with ur customers. I do the same in my business, I think it makes the difference between a shopper and a loyal customer.”

Is Radical Shoulder Replacement Right for You?
April 6, 2011
Who wants to have the end of their upper arm sawed off and then have a deep hole drilled down the center? No one….unless you’re suffering from the extreme pain of Osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, results in the wearing away of the cartilage of the joint. When the cartilage is gone, you have bone on bone contact with no lubrication between and PAIN…lots of pain.
