The Shoulder Joint ” Part Two
As the shoulder movement becomes less well balanced a typical pattern develops of raising the whole shoulder area, tipping the neck slightly over to the same side and allowing the scapula to wing away from the chest at the back. This biomechanical pattern forces abnormal stresses onto the shoulder structures, allowing impingement or the development or rotator cuff tears. In normal movement and use of the arm the body’s neural preparation system ensures the core is engaged to stabilise the spine and the scapula is stabilised by the muscles connecting it to the thorax.
