Shoulder pain from CrossFit or weightlifting can mean something's torn, but in most cases, it doesn't, especially when it builds up gradually with training instead of from one specific moment.
Being told you have a rotator cuff tear can feel scary, but surgery isn’t always necessary. Many tears are a normal part of aging and aren’t even the true source of shoulder pain. At 901 Physical Therapy, we help people in Memphis recover strength, mobility, and confidence without surgery by addressing the real root of the problem.
Rotator cuff tears are common, especially with age, but they do not always require surgery. Many people experience shoulder pain due to movement problems that are highly treatable with physical therapy.
