➡️ When people think about physical therapy, they often imagine exercises, stretching, or hands-on treatment. While these interventions are important, the most critical part of successful rehabilitation actually happens before treatment begins—a comprehensive physical therapy evaluation.

📚 From an evidence-based perspective, activation of the deep core musculature—especially the transversus abdominis and multifidus—improves lumbopelvic stability and proximal force control, which enhances distal limb movement quality. This “proximal stability for distal mobility” concept is well supported in rehabilitation literature and is commonly used in treatment of low back pain, hamstring dysfunction, and movement impairments.
✅✅ Core engagement may also reduce excessive lumbar extension and improve intra-abdominal pressure, decreasing mechanical stress on the lumbar spine and neural tissues during the SLR. In some patients, this can temporarily reduce neural mechanosensitivity or hamstring guarding, which further increases apparent flexibility or leg raise height.

▶️ Left shoulder dyskinesis. Before and after treatment assessments. Notice the down movement of the arm and shoulder blade on the left vs the right.
Simply put it’s the movement of the shoulder blade during arm motion, often caused by muscle weakness/imbalance, poor posture, or overuse, leading to pain, instability, and potential rotator cuff issues, treated primarily with physical therapy to improve muscle control, strength, and mechanics. It’s characterized by changes like the shoulder blade sticking out (“winging”) or a feeling of instability, and can affect overhead athletes or anyone with shoulder issues.
