shoulder rehab

Arm-socket physical therapy

Shoulder rehab is the process of restoring strength, mobility, and function to an injured or post-surgical shoulder through targeted exercises and therapy.

The term appears in medical contexts and fitness discussions alike: I've been doing shoulder rehab for six weeks after my rotator cuff surgery.

Often shortened from shoulder rehabilitation.
