With one month passed while being on both SuperCissus RX and Animal Flex.... Would I know by now if they've helped?

I don't feel like they've done anything special, or what they did do is minor....

I appreciate the time you took to respond, but I'm not sure if you are for or against continuing these supplements. I think you were voting against...maybe... lol

I'm thinking since I have no...

I've had 7 treatments so far with A.R.T.... I'm a believer. The first four treatments really hurt me good. The biggest problem I have is the pec pain near my armpit. My chiro says this is...

Yup, I'm doing rotator cuff exercises. Some stretching too (maybe not enough). The chiro actually cut down my RC exercises; he told me I was doing too many sets/reps. The ortho told me to take...

Great post. Nice info. Very encouraging!

I'm in a transformation... but a little stuck... Jan 2010 I was 5'6" and 210lbs. I hit bottom and thought I'd try to lose some weight so I didn't have...

I posted some questions a few months back on these RC exercises, and I just wanted to throw out some info that came from my chiro.

I hurt my shoulder in Feb 2011, but the injury seemed minor to...

Just went to the Chiro that is A.R.T. certified. Very cool. He worked my shoulder over pretty good. I like the Dr. and the treatment. Thanks for recommending A.R.T.!

Well at least I can say that I have been resting it and doing my RC exercises.

I'm thinking that I can go back to limited strength training with exercises that dont put much strain on that RC...

I think what you guys are saying about the supplements makes perfect sense. At this point I just want to put everything in my favor that I can. I realize that these supps may not do much... But I...

I've been using ice... but lately more heat in the evenings before bed. I've used ice after I do the RC exercises. However, I haven't worked out with weights because I'm afraid that something minor...

Naturalguy,

Been reading up up on this, and it looks promising. I came across some great how to articles that were clearly made for massage therapist to massage therapist... I also found some...

During your rest time did you do any RC exercises? Or complete rest?

For $5 for castor oil, I'm willing to give this a try. I have rotator cuff tendinitis from an injury 4 months ago. I have nothing to lose... plus I already have been using a heating pad, so I'm...

Just ordered animal flex and supercissus. Gonna give them both a try, for $60 if even helps speed recovery a little it's worth a try. I'm really dying to get back to a real workout. At least a...

I wasn't sure on the anti-inflams... I wasn't sure if they interfere with the body's natural healing, but the ortho said inflammation in this case is bad.

As for ice, I'll have to use it more. ...

By active rest... Working out but not using the injured muscle/tendon?

What is A.R.T.? Active release something? Like a deep tissue massage?

I did. Went to an othropedic surgeon / sports med rehab. After a quick eval he said it was tendonitis of the supraspinatus tendon. From the ROM tests, and my pain description he seemed very confident...

I tried to squeeze out a few more reps of overhead press. Bad form. So, I ended up with an injury.

My shoulder / rotator cuff never bothered me prior to this injury.

What's joint force?

I'm wondering if I tried these supps so early in the beginning of theinjury that it was hard to tell. I know that I'm much better than I was before, I have for sure healed over the last 4 months.
