A case report shows combined shoulder taping and ultrasound therapy improves recovery in rotator cuff tear, implying effective non-surgical options.
Figure‐of‐eight stabilizing shoulder taping immediately reduced pain and restored joint centering in a patient with traumatic recurrent massive rotator cuff tear. When combined with real‐time ultrasound‐guided exercise therapy, it facilitated selective posterior cuff activation and enabled short‐term functional recovery, offering a feasible conservative option for patients declining surgery.
