This document discusses the rehabilitation approach for patients following shoulder instability surgery. It focuses on principles such as analgesia, quality range of motion, muscle control, timing, strength goals, and patient-specific rehabilitation. The approach emphasizes avoiding immobilization to prevent deconditioning while also protecting the surgical repair site. Exercises target the rotator cuff and scapular muscles as well as proprioception and the kinetic chain. The rehabilitation progresses from an initial protection phase using range of motion and proprioceptive exercises to a functional phase incorporating strengthening, sports-specific exercises, and plyometrics.
