Differences between clinician- and self-administered shoulder sustained mobilization on scapular and shoulder muscle activity during shoulder abduction: A repeated-measures study on asymptomatic individuals

Sustained glenohumeral postero-lateral glide administered by a clinician is commonly used in the management of patients with shoulder pain. This technique reduced shoulder muscle activity in asymptomatic individuals, but it is unknown whether a self-administered version of the mobilization leads to similar neuromuscular response. This study compared the effect of sustained shoulder mobilizations (performed by a physiotherapist) with self-administered mobilization (with a belt) on activity levels of scapular and glenohumeral shoulder muscles.
