Typical Symptoms:
Common Causes:
We tailor exercises to reduce stress on the torn labrum, strengthen surrounding muscles, and improve joint mechanics. Manual therapy can alleviate stiffness, while controlled range-of-motion exercises promote healing. Across Boynton Beach, Lake Worth, Boca Raton, and Wellington, patients with labral injuries often present with discomfort performing daily tasks like reaching overhead or bending. If the shoulder is affected, we prioritize rotator cuff and scapular stabilization; if the hip is affected, gluteal and core strengthening is key. In either case, our therapists closely monitor your range of motion and pain response, gradually introducing more challenging activities (e.g., overhead lifting for shoulder tears or squatting for hip tears) once the labrum is stable.

Key Benefits:
Recovery depends on tear severity. Many partial tears improve with 8–12 weeks of therapy; full tears may require surgery followed by rehab. Throughout your sessions, we’ll track muscle strength, joint stability, and discomfort levels to ensure you’re progressing safely. Post-surgical patients often begin with protective movements before transitioning to advanced exercises. With consistent effort, you can regain pain-free range of motion and confidently return to favorite sports or daily routines.
Do all labral tears require surgery?
Not necessarily. Small or partial tears often respond to conservative therapy, but surgery may be required if function remains limited.
How do I prevent further tearing?
Avoid extreme repetitive movements, maintain proper joint alignment, and follow your strengthening program diligently.
