Summary

Scapular dyskinesis is defined as a visible alteration in scapular movement and position during rest or while performing dynamic motions causing a breakage in kinetic chain. Kinematic studies in subjects with scapular dysfunction showed decrease posterior tilt of scapula, increased scapular upward rotation and changes in glenohumeral to scapulothoracic ratios. Scapular dyskinesis can be categorized into 3 types according to standard classification. Type I is the posterior displacement of infero-medial angle due to excessive anterior tilt in sagittal plane, type II is the displacement of entire medial angle from posterior thorax caused by excessive internal rotation and dysrhythmic movement of scapula excessive elevation of superior border during scapular elevation is distinguished as type III . Almost 90% of office workers presenting with scapular and neck complains present with scapular dyskinesis . Shoulder dysfunction occur in up to 68% of individuals presenting with scapular dyskinesis

Conditions

  • Scapular Dyskinesis

Interventions

OTHER

Scapular stabilization exercises with conventional therapy

The patient will sit on the knees in 90° flexion position, and a Swiss ball will be placed between the chest and stomach. From the side, the earlobe, acromion of scapula, and pelvis should made a straight line. Four general exercises will be included with 2 sets of 15 repetitions, holding for 10 sec

OTHER

Thoracic extension exercises with conventional therapy

Thoracic extension exercises consist of three exercise protocols
