Summary

This study looks at whether adding kinesio taping to standard rehab after rotator cuff surgery can reduce pain and improve shoulder function. About 50 adults aged 18 to 70 who have had this surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either standard rehab alone or standard rehab plus three weeks of kinesio taping. Pain and shoulder function will be measured using standard scales to see if the taping provides extra benefits.
