A rotator cuff tear can transform simple daily activities into painful challenges. Whether you're reaching for a coffee cup or lifting your arm to wave goodbye, shoulder pain disrupts your quality of life and limits your movement. At One Body LDN Physio, our specialized shoulder physiotherapists understand the complex nature of rotator cuff injuries and provide targeted treatment that addresses the root cause of your pain.



Located in the heart of London, our clinic has helped countless patients recover from rotator cuff tears using evidence-based physiotherapy techniques. From athletes returning to peak performance to office workers seeking pain-free movement, we tailor our approach to meet your specific needs and goals.
Understanding Rotator Cuff Tears
The rotator cuff consists of four muscles and tendons that stabilize your shoulder joint and enable smooth arm movement. When these tissues become damaged through injury, overuse, or age-related wear, you may experience sharp pain, weakness, and restricted range of motion.
Common causes of rotator cuff tears include:
• Sports injuries from tennis, swimming, or weightlifting
• Workplace injuries from repetitive overhead movements
• Poor posture leading to muscle imbalances
• Age-related degeneration of shoulder tissues
• Sudden trauma from falls or accidents
Our Comprehensive Treatment Approach
Targeted Strengthening Programs
Our London physiotherapists design personalized strengthening protocols that rebuild muscle function while protecting healing tissues. We focus on progressive exercises that restore shoulder stability and prevent future injuries. These programs address not only the rotator cuff muscles but also the supporting muscle groups that contribute to proper shoulder mechanics.
Advanced Mobility Work
Restoring full range of motion is crucial for complete recovery. Our mobility treatments include gentle stretching techniques, joint mobilization, and movement re-education to eliminate stiffness and restore natural shoulder function. We teach you specific exercises to maintain flexibility and prevent adhesions from forming during the healing process.
Deep Tissue Massage Therapy
Therapeutic massage plays a vital role in rotator cuff recovery by improving blood circulation, reducing muscle tension, and promoting tissue healing. Our skilled therapists use specialized techniques to address trigger points, break down scar tissue, and enhance the effectiveness of your overall treatment plan.
