No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD) is one of the main reasons for glenohumeral pain in athletes with over-head activity. As GIRD increases, the ratio between internal and external rotation changes resulting in decreased joint stability.

Joint mobilization is a possible option for the decrease of GIRD and contribution to improvement of proprioception in addition to physical therapy. The aim of this trial is to investigate the effect of end-range Maitland mobilization in addition to physical therapy on GIRD, other joint movements and proprioception.
