AB The  shoulder  complex  design  enables  great  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  the  three  synovial  and  two  functional  joints  with  the  many  muscles  that  comprise  the  shoulder  complex  interact  to  provide  and  control  the  mobility.  When  establishing  a  therapeutic  exercise  program  for  impaired  function  of  the  shoulder  region,  as  with  any  other  body  region,  the  unique  anatomical  and  kinesiological  features  must  be  considered  along  with  the  state  of  pathology  and  functional  limitations  imposed  by  the  impairments.
