Exercise therapy may affect scapular position and motion in individuals with scapular dyskinesis: a systematic review of clinical trials

摘要

Background: Therapeutic exercise for scapular muscles is suggested to be effective in reducing shoulder pain in patients with rotator cuff disorders, whereas its effectiveness on scapular position and motion has remained unclear. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to investigate whether exercise therapy improves scapular position and motion in individuals with scapular dyskinesis.
