Understanding Rotator Cuff Injuries and Treatment

The rotator cuff—a group of four small but mighty muscles: supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis—acts as the shoulder’s dynamic stabilizer.

They control rotation, guide elevation, and prevent the shoulder from collapsing into the kind of sloppy mechanics that lead to impingement and pain.
