Dive into the world of rotator cuff rehabilitation with Dr. Byron Miller, tendon specialist and physical therapist. In this information-packed episode, Tim Riley shares his personal shoulder injury journey and how Dr. Miller's evidence-based approach provided solutions when traditional healthcare failed.
Dr. Miller breaks down his revolutionary protocol for treating tendinopathy, explaining why common approaches like RICE and glute activation often miss the mark. Learn why you cannot have a healthy tendon without load and how isometric exercises can be the key to recovery.
From medical school disillusionment to developing specialized protocols during COVID, Dr. Miller's journey shows the importance of questioning established practices and focusing on what actually works for patients.
