#107 - FSGDI: Scapular Dyskinesis ist irrelevant

Der Grundtenor auf Social Media: Die Haltung des Schulterblattes
oder falsche Bewegungen spielen keine Rolle bei
Schulterschmerzen. Doch ist das immer der Fall? In dieser Folge
schauen wir uns das Thema einmal differenzierter an. Wann spielt
Scapular Dyskinesis eine Rolle und wann nicht? Und wenn es eine
Rolle spielt, wie kannst du es sinnvoll testen? Viel Spaß bei!m
Hören!
