movement (for speech and swallowing)
therefore only secondary cervical spine
mobilisers

Mainly work to control excessive upper
cervical flexion.
Control excessive movement
• Eccentric activity
• Significant proprioceptive function

18.

( mid to low cervical
spine)

Mobility
Muscles
• Splenius mastoid to C4-T3

Iliocostalis cervicus TP C4-6 to ribs 3-6
Levator scapulae TP C1-4 to
superiormedial border of scapula
Lets just call them superficial extensors!!!

21.

Superficial Extensors

Not segmental
Ipsilateral rotation and lateral flexion
without segmental control

22.

Upper Trapezius and levator
Scapulae

23.

Trapezius
QuickTime™ and a
decompressor
are needed to see this picture.

24.

Levator Scapulae and
Upper
Trapezius
• Mainly
mobility of
scapula
Can also produce Neck extension and
lateral flexion but not their prime role
No segmental control
problematic if become short and stiff

25.

Ideal Neck Posture
Plane of neck and jaw should
be different not one continuous
line
Plumb line drawn down centre
of neck should be neutral or
within 10 degrees of forward
inclination
Plumb line from ear lobe
should fall just in front of
clavicle
Look for creases and
assymmetries

26.

Can also get a hinge or mid cervical
collapse

The Shoulder Complex

43.

4 joints
• The glenohumeral joint
• The acromioclavicular joint
• The Sternoclavicular joint
• The Scapulothoracic articulation

44.

45.

46.

Typical synovial joint

47.

The glenohumeral joint
Ball and socket synovial joint
Large humeral head
Small glenoid fossa
Stability sacrificed for mobility

48.

Humerus

49.

Glenoid fossa
(scapula)

50.

The shoulder

51.

Gleno-humeral movement
• Flexion
• Extension
• Internal (medial) Rotation
• External (lateral) Rotation
• Abduction
• Adduction

52.

The Acromioclavicular joint
Small plane joint
The lateral end of the clavicle and the
acromion process of the scapula
Joins the scapula to the clavicle
Small gliding movements through
shoulder elevation
Rotation of scapular around clavicle

53.

Acomioclavicular joint

54.

Acromioclavicular joint sprain
Fall onto point of shoulder.
Sprain or disruption of the acromioclavicular ligaments
Grade 1 to 3
Step deformity with grade 3

55.

The Sternoclavicular joint
• Small fibrous plane joint
• Between the medial end of the clavicle
and the sternum
This attaches the shoulder complex to
the trunk
Gliding Movements and rotation of the
clavicle on the sternum
Allows end range elevation

56.

Sternoclavicular Joint

57.

The Scapulothoracic articulation
Not a true synovial joint
Allows the scapula to glide around the
thoracic wall
Keeps the glenoid in contact with the
humerus
Supported only by muscles

58.

59.


Scapulohumeral
rhythm
During 180 degrees of arm elevation
2:1 ratio of humeral to scapula movement
-120 degrees glenohumeral
- 60 degrees scapulothoracic
Occurs in 3 phases

60.


Phase 1
abduction
- 30 degrees GH
Scapulohumeral
- minimal scapula
movement rhythm
Phase 2 and 3
- 90 degrees of GH
abduction
- 60 degrees of scapula
rotation
Phase 3
the scapula
rotation of the
clavicle
- mainly elevation of
and posterior

61.

62.

63.

Rotator cuff MRI

64.

Impingement
Syndrome
Structures between the humerus and the
acromion can become compressed and
pinched during elevation of the arm. The
space is at its narrowest between 70 and
120 degrees.
• Supraspinatus tendon
• Long head of biceps
• Sub-acromial bursa

65.

66.

Biomechanical risk factors
Internal rotation of the shoulder during
elevation
Secondary impingement due to reversed
scapulohumeral rhythm
Short 2 joint muscles

67.

Bone spur

68.

X-ray sub-acromial
spur

71.


Glenohumeral
Excessive translation
of the large humeral head on
Instability
the relatively small glenoid due to
- Damaged ligaments
- Poor muscle control
Unidirectional (anterior or posterior)
Multidirectional (global)
Instability tests
Need to improve dynamic control

72.

Gleno-humeral
dislocation

73.

Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder is characterised by
progressive pain and stiffness in the
glenohumeral joint
Can be idiopathic or following injury
3 stages all lasting about 6 months

74.

Frozen Shoulder
stages
• Stage 1 Progressive and severe pain. Little
stiffness
• Stage 11 Plateau in pain and increasing
stiffness
• Stage 111 Little pain. Shoulder very stiff
