Elbow Rehab Exercises Following UCL Repair with Internal Brace

Phase Specific Throwing Program: http://overheadathletics.com/intros/p...


The ulnar collateral ligament repair with internal brace augmentation is becoming a relatively popular new procedure for overhead athletes and baseball players due to the decreased recovery time and tensile capabilities of the Arthrex internal brace. As with any procedure it is important to initiate rehabilitation protocols as soon as cleared by your physician. Choosing specific exercises designed to improve the dynamic stability of the elbow joint can accelerate the healing process and protect the repaired tissues. To access the UCL other superficial structures must be cut through or pushed aside. All of the flexor muscles and especially the flexor carpi ulnaris and pronator teres muscles are extremely important to strengthen following this procedure or Tommy Johns Surgery which is a ucl reconstruction compared to a ucl repair.
