1: Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I ordered this book after injuring my left shoulder at work. I am a paramedic and familiar with the shoulder anatomy, and was skeptical this would work. After thirty days, though, I am skeptical no longer! I am now almost pain-free. A lot cheaper than surgery! I mean, why not try it? If you wait and have to have surgery, you'll wind up doing the exercises anyway in rehab afterwards!!! Highly recommended.

2: Very helpful and to the point...
For anyone that's having rotator cuff issues, I recommend this book highly. Has just enough technical info to get you acquainted to what is/might be going one, but has a lot of helpful exercises and stretches that should help you get to where you want to be, which is more important, anyway. Highly recommended.

3: Pain Relief
So easy to understand! I know have a good knowledge of how the shoulder works. The exercises are very helpful. Got me closer of achieving zero pain. Hardly have pain anymore, mostly tight or a little uncomfortable but that's better than chronic pain ay!! It only takes around 3-4 hours to read. DO IT IF YOU KAIN'T TAKES NO MORES!!

4: Off the cuff
Johnson's book is an excellent resource for anyone with rotator cuff issues. It is well written and easy to understand.

5: Treat your own rotator cuff
This book, written by a Physical Therapist, explains and shows the muscles involved in the rotator cuff more clearly than any other anatomy book I've picked up on the subject. He explains what muscles you are strengthening for each exercise. Stretching, very much like yoga stretching, is also included. If I could talk to the author, I would ask him to look up Supported Headstand as a very effective treatment for RCS, too. This is thoroughly explained in volume 16 of the International Journal of Yoga Therapy in a research article entitled Headstand for Rotator Cuff Tear: Shirshasana or Surgery.
