Home rehab matches clinic therapy for shoulder surgery recovery

This study tested whether doing physical therapy at home via video calls (telerehabilitation) works as well as going to a clinic after rotator cuff surgery. Thirty people who had surgery at least six weeks earlier took part. Both groups did the same exercises for eight weeks, and both improved in pain, movement, and quality of life. The telerehab group actually showed greater gains in some areas, suggesting it's a good alternative to in-person therapy.
