The ultra-specific rehabilitation of tendinitis by John Jerome. "Rehabilitating all the nooks and crannies, particularly of the shoulder, is a specialty of Ted Becker, Ph.D., the physical therapist and athletic trainer who treated Steve Lundquist - the swimmer who won the 100 meter breaststroke at the Los Angeles Olympics only 11 months after severely separating his shoulder in a water skiing accident. Becker put the shoulder back together; part of that Olympic gold medal, Lundquist said, belongs to Ted". "One of Becker's great talents is inventing prescription rehab exercises to cure specific problems".
