ok...then how did it rehab his shoulder if it doesn't affect his shoulder?
And what did Manny do wrong if all he did was swim? Are you kidding?????
Remember this:
Testimony From Medical Sources:
"Swimming plays no role in the rehabilitation program for people with rotator cuff injuries and, second, swimmers are at risk of getting rotator cuff injuries because the shoulders play such an important role in swimming strokes."
"Rehabilitation guidelines for repairing the rotator cuff, clearly rule out swimming, even at 14 weeks after surgery."

With the consent of their surgeon, a patient may return to activities such as swimming between 4 and 6 months following the procedure.
