AB  - The  design  of  the  shoulder  girdle  allows  for  mobility  of  the  upper  extremity.  As  a  result,  the  hand  can  be  placed  almost  anywhere  within  a  sphere  of  movement,  its  range  limited  primarily  by  the  length  of  the  arm  and  the  space  taken  up  by  the  body.  The  combined  mechanics  of  its  joints  and  muscles  provide  for  and  control  the  mobility.  When  establishing  a  therapeutic  exercise  program  for  impaired  function  of  the  shoulder  region,  as  with  any  other  region  of  the  body,  the  unique  anatomical  and  kinesiological  features  must  be  taken  into  consideration  as  well  as  the  state  of  pathology  and  functional  limitations  imposed  by  the  impairments.
