While lying in a comfortable position, grab the wrist of your surgical arm with the opposite hand. Gently lift your surgical arm 90 degrees then bring your arm back down. Then lift your surgical arm over your head and back down. Repeat the recommended number of times.

ALL EXERCISES SHOULD BE PERFORMED AS INSTRUCTED BY YOUR SURGEON, AFTER PROPER DEMONSTRATION BY A PHYSICAL THERAPIST.
