Shoulder Dysfunction

Lumbar extension pattern.jpg

Here's a common dysfunctional pattern we see when lifting the arm overhead.

❌ The picture on the left displays a hyperextension pattern at the lower back and a flaring of the ribs.

This suggests a few things might be up.

There could be pain or injury, there could be an underlying mobility, stability/motor control or strength problem.

The body will find away to get that arm overhead, and in this case, has extended at the lower back and flared the rib cage.

✅ The picture on the right shows better trunk stability allowing the thoracic spine, shoulder and shoulder blade to do its thing and move in synchrony into an overhead position while maintaining control of the torso.

84% decrease in ACL re-injury risk using simple decision rules

A recent study outlines simple decision rules that may decrease re-injury risk by up to 84% after ACL reconstruction.

The main take-aways from the study were:

  1. Patients who returned to pivoting and cutting sports had a 4.32 times higher re-injury rate than those who did not

  2. Re-injury rate was significantly reduced by 51% for each month return to sport was delayed until 9-months after surgery

  3. Almost 40% of those who failed return to sport criteria suffered re-injuries versus 5% of those who passed

  4.  More symmetrical quads strength prior to return significantly reduced knee injury rate
