A NOVEL APPROACH TO TREATMENT UTILIZING BREATHING AND A TOTAL MOTION RELEASE® EXERCISE PROGRAM IN A HIGH SCHOOL CHEERLEADER WITH A DIAGNOSIS OF FROZEN SHOULDER: A CASE REPORT

摘要

Background and PurposeFrozen shoulder (FS) is a condition of the shoulder that is characterized by gradual loss of passive and active range of motion of the glenohumeral joint. Current treatment recommendations remain unclear due to the elusive etiology of FS and absence of nomenclature in the literature. The purpose of this case report is to describe the effects of treatment guided by the assessment and treatment of a breathing pattern disorder (BPD) coupled with Total Motion Release® on a 17‐year high school cheerleader with a diagnosis of frozen shoulder.
