Clinical Pearl for Shoulder Flexion
Not sure if this is a clinical pearl but it has managed to help improve Sh flexion for two of my pts. Both of them had limited post op Sh flexion . They were mainly able to lift up till about 160 degrees. Their limitation was probably caused by over- activation of their traps. It was visible that they Sh shrug or side bend their neck on the affected side when they performed Sh flexion. Below is a picture showing the difference in ROM (Sorry for my bad photography skills) Wit
