OBJECTIVES

Explain the etiology of common shoulder complex pathologies and identify possible anatomic and functional movement etiologic factors
Identify which special tests should be used to identify specific shoulder complex pathologies and be able to apply these tests proficiently
Determine which patients are appropriate candidates for conservative intervention or should be referred for assessment as surgical candidates
Utilize effective glenohumeral and scapula-thoracic mobilization techniques specific to shoulder complex pathologies
Devise appropriate treatment plans and enable effective patient intervention based on clinical findings
