Shoulder Range of Motion Test

The Shoulder Range of Motion Test doesn't rely on a scoring system. Instead, clinicians assess the patient's ability to perform specific arm movements in various directions. A limited range of motion, discomfort, or pain during these movements can indicate issues with shoulder mobility.

The Shoulder Range of Motion Test evaluates the patient's capacity to move their shoulder joint in different directions. It aims to identify limitations, discomfort, or pain during movements such as abduction, flexion, external rotation, and internal rotation.

The Shoulder Range of Motion Test is a low-risk assessment. If the patient has no underlying shoulder conditions or injuries, they should experience no adverse effects from performing the test. However, patients with shoulder problems should consult their physician before the test.
