Brief Summary
The contribution of the scapula to shoulder joint movement is great. The contribution of the scapula bone is more prominent, especially in overhead activities. Therefore, the position and movement of the scapula are generally examined in people with shoulder disease. Scapula-focused exercises are used in patients with shoulder problems. However, some studies focused on the effectiveness of scapula-focused exercises on shoulder problems. Thes studies fundings are controversial. Scapular dyskinesis has not been evaluated in these studies. No study has set the condition of having scapular dyskinesis as an inclusion criterion. Scapular-focused exercises are expected to have a greater effect especially on patients with scapular dyskinesis. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of scapula-focused exercises on patients with shoulder pain and obvious scapular dyskinesis.
