“…Although the association between scapular orientation and shoulder pain is clear, maladaptive scapular orientation may be multidirectional, with a recent systematic review reporting opposing that scapular orientations are linked to shoulder pain in shoulder impingement syndrome [1]. Both increased and decreased scapular upward rotation [4,11,12,14,20,22,24,25], posterior tilt [4,5,8,9,[11][12][13][14]16], medial rotation [4,6,7,12,13,16], and lateral translation [9,20,22] have been associated with shoulder pain. Elevation appears to be the only scapular orientation that has a unidirectional (increased) association with shoulder pain [8,9,11,14,15].…”
