Second only to low back pain, shoulder pain is the most common musculoskeletal complaint with a reported 20.9% prevalence. Whilst most are given the general diagnosis of ‘impingement,’ the actual pathomechanics are poorly understood. Differences in scapulothoracic joint motion have been reported between symptomatic and asymptomatic shoulders – however, little is known regarding the simultaneous kinematics at the sternoclavicular or acromioclavicular joints. The current study investigated the motion at these 3 joints in symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.
