One of the most common musculoskeletal issues seen in orthopaedic physiotherapy are shoulder injuries and abnormalities. Clinicians and patients face distinct problems due to the intricate structure of the shoulder and the wide range of shoulder diseases. In order to address these issues, the book Rebuilding Strength: A Guide to Shoulder Rehabilitation in Orthopaedic Physiotherapy offers a thorough and useful method for shoulder rehabilitation. This guide's main goal is to provide physiotherapists with a well-organised framework for managing shoulder rehabilitation, from the initial evaluation to more complex therapeutic procedures. This book is an invaluable tool for both seasoned practitioners and those just entering the industry because it seamlessly blends clinical expertise with evidence-based procedures. Every chapter explores a different facet of shoulder rehabilitation, such as frequent shoulder injuries, in-depth anatomical insights, and a variety of therapeutic exercises and procedures. The significance of customised treatment regimens that take into account each patient's particular requirements and characteristics is emphasised. In order to demonstrate practical application, the guide integrates case studies with an exploration of the most recent developments in rehabilitation procedures. Although the road from injury to recovery is frequently difficult, physiotherapists may greatly improve patient outcomes and quality of life by equipping themselves with the appropriate information and resources. In addition to being a useful manual, we hope this book will stimulate further reading on shoulder rehabilitation and its significance in orthopaedic therapy.We sincerely thank the scholars, practitioners, and collaborators whose experiences and insights have influenced our work.
