Study Notes

Scapular Rotations

For scapular upward rotation, the PT is in a position of abduction-upward rotation.

Scapular Abduction-Upward Rotation

The key muscle for scapular abduction-upward rotation is the trapezius.

Scapular Downward Rotation

For scapular downward rotation, the PT's hand position is on the medial surface of the scapula, and the PTA applies resistance.
The key muscle for scapular adduction-downward rotation is the rhomboid.

Scapular Adduction-Depression

During scapular adduction-depression, the patient's arm is adducted and downwardly rotated.
The key muscle for scapular adduction-depression is the pectoralis minor.
The PTA applies resistance through the lateral surface of the scapula towards abduction and elevation.

MMT Scapular Adduction

MMT scapular adduction requires the patient to be in a position of scapular adduction.
The key muscle for MMT scapular adduction is the pectoralis minor.

Middle Trapezius

One function of the middle trapezius is scapular rotation.

Scapular Elevation MMT

Scapular elevation MMT requires the patient to be in a position of scapular elevation.

MMT Shoulder External Rotation

MMT shoulder external rotation resistance will be applied through the lateral surface of the humerus.
The PTA position for shoulder external rotation is lateral to the humerus.
