The shoulder is our most mobile joint in our body, allowing for movement in many different areas circling all around. We sacrifice stability in exchange to have this mobility. As a result, we have a labrum tissue to help support the ball and socket joint, and rotator cuff muscles that act as an active support to this joint.
Our shoulder complex is actually made up of 3 different joints from the front of our chest bone to the back of our shoulder blade that all move and function together. Unfortunately this leaves lots of opportunity for imbalance that result in pain and dysfunction.
