Assessment & Rehabilitation of proprioception at the shoulder joint ( recording)

Dr. Ian Horsley

For reference this took place on January 8th 2021. Purchasing the recording grants you access to all material for 14 days.

The Glenohumeral joint (GHJ) is prone to instability because the glenoid fossa is a shallow structure that provides little bony constraint for the humeral head. To have superior mobility as well as sufficient stability, the GHJ depends on the interaction of the local  ligaments and muscles.

Proprioception encompasses our ability to sense where our limbs and joints are in relation to our body and to the surrounding environment (position as well as movement) in the absence of visual feedback. It is well documented that a decreased sense of proprioception is related to shoulder injuries such as shoulder instability, impingement,  rotator cuff  dysfunctions, and adhesive capsulitis. 

Disturbed proprioception is likely to have adverse influence on feedback and feedforward motor control and the regulation of muscle stiffness.

In this webinar Ian will explore:

• the role of proprioception at the shoulder as part of the body’s sensorimotor system

• Discuss its’ role In motor control

• Present methods of assessing and rehabilitating shoulder proprioception within a clinical setting
