Through a prospective randomized study the aims of this study is to analyze the impact of 3 types of rehabilitation protocols on the Optimization of the post-operative clinical and anatomic healing of the rotator cuff. After an arthroscopic repair of a stage 1 or 2 supra-spinatus tendon rupture, patients will be included in 3 groups (98 patients per group):

* strict immobilization for 6 weeks then active rehabilitation,
* or 3 weeks of immobilization then 3 weeks of passive motion before active rehabilitation,
* or immediate passive motion for 6 weeks and then active rehabilitation.
