Скачать или смотреть Passive Range of Motion after Shoulder Surgery

“Passive range of motion” and “Active range of motion” are two terms commonly used in physical therapy. They both refer to activities aimed at improving a joints range of motion. Passive range of motion is when a physical therapist physically moves, or stretches, a part of your body. This technique is especially used for shoulders, particularly after any type of shoulder surgery.

This video is showing you examples of how a PT would perform passive range of motion with a patient. We get the patient comfortably positioned and the upper arm supported as we move their arm in different directions. After someone has shoulder surgery then PTs have to make sure we help the patient regain range of motion without over stressing the tissues the surgeon just repaired.

Typically, for the first 6 weeks following shoulder surgery your PT will use passive range of motion to allow the tissues time to heal and to get it ready for strengthening!
