Reduced range due to pain in the joint (empty end-feel) may indicate a joint capsule pathology. Reduced range due to a physical barrier (a springy end-feel or bony end-feel in a joint that would be abnormal) without pain may indicate a more chronic joint pathology such as scar tissue from a previous injury or a pathological bony growth. Reduced range due to a physical barrier with pain may indicate joint capsule pathology and/or musculoskeletal pathology. Types of End-Feels: Firm or Tissue Stretch End-Feel The sensation is firm with an elastic response, and some give. Depending on the joint being tested, this is often a normal end-feel. For example: the GH joint, in all ranges except for adduction. Soft Tissue Approximation The sensation is soft and blocked by tissue or muscle. Depending on the joint being tested, this is very often a normal end-feel. For example: the GH joint in adduction and the knee joint in flexion. Bony End-Feel The sensation is hard with a definitive block by bone and no give. Depending on the joint being tested, this can be a normal end-feel, especially when it is not experienced with pain.

The purpose of performing a Passive Relaxed range of motion assessment is to identify how far the joint can be moved pain-free, or without resistance, with no muscle activation. Combined with Active Free and Resisted Isometric range of motion assessments, this can help assess whether the cause of your pain is in the joint capsule, the muscles crossing the joint, or both. Positioning: I will have you seated/standing, and I will place my hands on your ________.

I will be moving your shoulder joint in a slow controlled manner in various directions. I want you to keep your arm completely limp. Do not try and help me or move your arm yourself at all. I will not be moving the shoulder past any painful points, so please tell me if there is any pain at all as I move your arm. I will also be performing the most painful or the affected range last. Check In: Do you have any questions about this test before I begin? Is it okay if I proceed with this test? Procedure: I am going to start by moving your arm into ________. Are you experiencing any pain or discomfort?
