The effect of scapula stabilization exercises on pain and motor function in patients with scapular dyskinesia: A validity review article

Abstract Background and Objectives: Changes in bone position and scapular movements affect shoulder function and can lead to scapular dyskinesia. The purpose of this validity review article was to evaluate the effect of scapular stabilization exercises on pain and motor function in patients with scapular dyskinesia. Materials and Methods: Search with related keywords in all years and in Magir...

Electromyographic analysis of specific exercises for scapular control in early phases of shoulder rehabilitation.

BACKGROUND Restoration of control of dynamic scapular motion by specific activation of the serratus anterior and lower trapezius muscles is an important part of functional rehabilitation. This study evaluated activation of those muscles in specific exercises. HYPOTHESIS Specific exercises will activate key scapular-stabilizing muscles in clinically significant amplitudes and patterns. STUDY...

Effect of Scapular Stabilisation Exercises for Type 2 Scapular Dyskinesis in Subjects with Shoulder Impingement

Background: Abnormal altered scapular position during rest or motion have been termed as Scapular Dyskinesia. Scapula Dyskinesia Type-2 is one type of dyskinesia in which there is a visual prominence of entire medial border of scapula that occurs due to weakness of the serratus anterior and tightness of posterior shoulder joint capsule that results in reduction in glenohumeral flexion and abduc...

Three-dimensional scapular and clavicular kinematics and scapular muscle activity during retraction exercises.

STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. OBJECTIVES To describe and compare scapular and clavicular kinematics and muscle activity during 6 retraction exercises in young healthy adults (mean +/- SD age, 23.2 +/- 2.4 years). BACKGROUND Based on the association between shoulder injuries and scapular/clavicular movement, muscle activity during various exercises that target muscles surrounding...
