Video Summary
The speaker, a physical therapist, explains treatment for an AC joint sprain. In the acute phase, the goal is to reduce pain and restore motion using low-grade joint mobilizations to the AC joint, performed gently for about 30 seconds and repeated two to three times, followed by reassessment. As recovery progresses, rehabilitation shifts to strengthening key muscles including the middle and lower trapezius, deltoids, posterior rotator cuff, and rhomboids. Exercises such as Y, T, and W movements are recommended, along with progressive weights and a home exercise program to reduce pain, improve mobility, build strength, and return to sport.
