Bradley Blair Osteopath on Instagram: "Arthroscopic repair of the supraspinatus tendon is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat tears of this tendon in the shoulder. The arthroscopic technique is performed under general anesthesia and sometimes supplemented by a regional block for post-operative pain relief. The surgeon makes several small incisions (portals) around the shoulder joint, through which they insert an arthroscope (a small camera) and specialised surgical instruments.
