Novel concepts in quantum biology of rotator cuff repair and author's novel findings on biomodulation inspired us to design a pragmatic non-pharmacological add-on rehabilitation protocol that may potentially decrease retear rates after arthroscopic repair using a knotted suturebridge technique. In this proof-of-concept trial, 146 patients will be randomized 1:1 to either a 6-weeks post-operative cryo-, photo- and electro-biomodulation protocol or a control group immobilized in a standard abduction sling for 6 weeks. Healing will be evaluated using the Sugaya classification on MRI at 1 year post-operatively.
