About

Shoulder protraction is the forward tilt of the head with hyperextension of the cervical spine and is associated with lengthening of the sternocleidomastoid and scalene muscles. With the lengthening of the flexor muscles, the weakened and shortened trapezius, levator scapula, and serratus anterior muscles lead to extra flexor torque and sustained contraction.

Full description

Weakness in the rotator cuff muscles, especially infraspinatus and supraspinatus muscles, has been observed in individuals with scapular dyskinesia and who frequently use overhead movements in their daily lives. The most important point to be considered in the treatment of scapular dyskinesia is the effective evaluation and treatment of primary and secondary symptoms and conditions. The preference of shoulder rehabilitation programs in which the scapula is also included in the treatment program will provide great benefits to physiotherapists in terms of treatment. Effective treatment can be provided by taping, exercise and many other treatment methods.
