Abstract:
[Purpose] This study was performed to evaluate the clinical effect of the dual-wall pushup plus exercise in patients with scapular dyskinesis with a winged or tipped scapula. [Subject] A 32-year-old man with scapular dyskinesis participated in this study. [Methods] The subject performed the dual-wall pushup plus for 2 months, 4 days a week, for an average of 2 hours each day. The scapular dyskinesis test, linear distance of the acromion, acromion angle, and inferior scapular distance were evaluated before and after the exercise program. [Results] After 2 months of dual-wall pushup plus exercises, the scapular dyskinesis test was negative, the linear distance of the acromion decreased, the acromion angle increased, and the inferior scapular distance decreased compared with the initial measurements. [Conclusion] The dual-wall pushup plus exercise is an effective intervention in patients with scapular dyskinesis with a winged or tipped scapula.
