Soft Tissue Mobilization With Movement To Improve Cervical And Shoulder Range Of Motion Post-Thyroidectomy In A 36-Year-Old Male: A Case Report, Sarah Tomes, Megann Schooley
Soft Tissue Mobilization With Movement To Improve Cervical And Shoulder Range Of Motion Post-Thyroidectomy In A 36-Year-Old Male: A Case Report, Sarah Tomes, Megann Schooley
St. Augustine, Fall 2018
The purpose of this case report is to describe the effectiveness of soft tissue mobilization with movement (STMM) to improve cervical and shoulder range of motion status-post thyroidectomy in a 36-year-old male.
When addressing hypertrophic scarring and ROM restrictions after total thyroidectomy, a beneficial myofascial treatment may include STMM. A home program could incorporate STMM or self-myofascial release as well.

Scapulothoracic Mobility And Strengthening After A Posterior Capsular Reconstruction Of The Glenohumeral Joint With An Allograft: A Case Report, Kris Saunders, David Kempfert
St. Augustine, Fall 2018
The purpose of this case report is to emphasize the importance of scapular mobility and strengthening exercises in rehabilitation protocols for patients after a posterior capsular reconstruction surgery of the glenohumeral joint.
The objective outcomes by week three are displayed in Table 1.0. The patient was discharged after nine visits over a period of three weeks. During the final session, the patient was able to perform standing shoulder abduction to 90 degrees with a one-pound dumbbell pain-free. The patient was able to reach into a shelf at 120 degrees of shoulder flexion with a pain scale rating of 2/10. He …
