Efficacy of Alternative and Other Treatments According to GRADE* Ranking:
Polarity Therapy:
Please note, this management does NOT treat the condition itself. It may mildly help with the symptoms, and even then has insufficient evidence to back up this claim at present.
Recommendation: no recommendation (there is insufficient evidence to show that Polarity Therapy helps in treating Rotator Cuff Tendinitis in any way)
Grade of Evidence: very low quality of evidence
