How do I know which model / Length to use for rehabing a rotator cuff injury?

either would work. However, I would prefer the longer model because of more energy created with less effort........

I had a rotator cuff injury and got the classic size sold here. If you are in a lot of pain and just starting therapy, you may want to start with the yellow smaller Bodyblade® CxT Kit. The body blade helped me tremendously. I didn't start using it until after I went through conventional physical therapy - which never completely helped me. Since using the Body Blade, I have zero pain even though I had two partially torn rotator cuffs and bicep impingement.

We suggest the Bodyblade Classic which is 48" long and weighs approximately 1.5 pounds. Regardless of age, gender or conditioning, the Bodyblade Classic is a good choice to use for rotator cuff rehab. Of course, everyone should check with their MD or PT before starting on any exercise or rehab program to seek their advise.

I wasn't sure so I ordered the one pictured here, it has a yellow stripe and the exercise chart and video. My PT said it was great to use. It has helped me gain strength and co-ordination back in my shoulder and arm.

Yes. If your arm is 9 to 13inches in diameter you will need to purchase the "standard" version of this product which is made for smaller arms. If you are trying to use this machine for two ppl one with large arms (13to17) and one with smaller arms then you can buy an additional cuff that can be swapped out for correct fit for both people. If you read the bottom part of the item description you will see the correct sizing for the cuff. Get a tape measure and wrap it around your arm midway between your elbow and shoulder to determine which cuff you need.

Go to the Limbsaver web site.If you can't find the correct pad then go to the contact page and call or e-mail.

Probably the Level 1 - this one's more for the heat/cold aspect. also, see Jim Johnson's rotator cuff book - the best support for the shoulder joint are strong rotator cuff muscles. Good luck!

Hello James and I am sorry for the late reply. With this lifter a sling will come with your purchase, and if you would like to order another one you can Google the lifter to get the correct size sling that is needed or check on Invacare website.

Hi. I bought what I found was similar to what was used at the Physical Therapy place I went for my shoulder and back injury. I like the tubes better than the bands. My husband built me a workout station at home that allows me to move the bands to different levels on the board for different exercises. I can do leg and arm exercises in one location, standing or sitting.

Not sure which model, checked entire unit and nothing..... Not even serial number to look up. I will check to see if I have manual tomorrow. Unit 2 yrs old still like new and works awesome. Super durable. Thought bottom pad would wear out but hasn't even come close to showing any wear. Just bought a TENS unit from Hi Dow company and like it better. Isolates problem area better and can use it alone. Both are chiropractic grade. Any other Questions just shoot.

I never owned that particular model Omron machine, but the cuff that I ordered came with two adapters one of which will probably fit your machine. You must also be sure of the size differences. See if the cuff you are interested in comes with adapters.

I found the info on their USA website--I'm not sure if this link will work as Amazon tends to delete, but google the name, choose the US site, pick the epitrain and it gives an illustration ( http://www.bauerfeindusa.com/en/products/supports-orthoses/elbow/epitrain.html ) Basically you measure 4 and 3/4 inches from the point of your elbow and take a circumference around your arm. The measurement then corresponds to a size. These fit snug, but that is the point. Oh, and in case Amazon deletes my link..the site is bauerfeindsusa dot com and then finding it is easy.

I think it depends on both your body size and the area(s) you'd like to focus on. I have a very small frame at 5'1" and I need to focus on my back/shoulders. It's JUST big enough. It's plenty big enough for rolling other areas, but if I had it to do again is likely get the 26" model. I do really love the thing, such a perfect degree of texture/firmness. Smooth foam rollers never got enough, rumble roller much too painful for my numberius trigger points (and I can stand a good bit of pressure). Hope that helps!

I used a seamstress measuring tape. Extend your arm parallel with your shoulder and have someone measure the distance around your elbow with the measuring tape.Sm: 8-9.5"Med: 9.5-11"Lg: 11-12"XL: 12-14"

You go to the Bauerfiend website specific to your region (I went to the USA website), click on products, and navitage to the specific model you are interested in, in this example I'll use the GenuTrain support: http://www.bauerfeindusa.com/en/products/supports-orthoses/knee-hip-thigh/genutrain.htmlFrom there, you click on the Technical Details tab, and the size chart is right there. It asks that you take two measurements, one above and one below the knee, and that is how you determine size.Hope this helps.

Rubina, I was about 9 1/2 inch arm and ordered the Medium which is 9.4-14.2". I still have about 3/4 of an inch before I need a small. The small takes 6.3-9.4". It's a tight call but if you gain some weight you'll be out of it. Replacement cuffs are about $15 so at least you'd have the machine if the size call is wrong. Sorry I couldn't give you a more definite answer.

I'm just a user and don't know any models except my 711 DLX. Make sure you communicate with the supplier as to cuff/meter compatibility ... before you place the order.

When I ordered my warming rack, I didn't have a model number. I measured the length available for the warming rack then order the corresponding warming rack length. It worked fine.
