Description[edit | edit source]
Blackburn et. al designed an exercise protocol for Scapular dyskinesia. It has been used widely ever since.
- Prone Extension - Prone with palm facing upwards, arms straight and lift parellel to the thorax while keeping your shoulders retracted.
Relevant anatomy[edit | edit source]
The scapula is a thin, flat triangular-shaped bone placed on the postero-lateral aspect of the thoracic cage. “SICK” Scapula Syndrome refers to Scapular Malpositioning, Inferior medial border prominence, Coracoid pain and malposition and DysKinesis of scapular movement. With the help of surrounding joints and soft tissues, the scapula helps in smooth and efficient movement of the shoulder.Clinical Presentation[edit | edit source]
