Motor Control Retraining Exercises on Shoulder Dysfunction Post Mastectomy

"The motor control retraining package was targeted at correcting movement impairments of the scapula by re-educating muscle recruitment. There were two components to the package:~1. Motor control exercises to correct alignment and coordination, which involve a) learning optimal scapular orientation at rest and then controlling optimal orientation during active arm movements; b) muscle specific exercises for trapezius and serratus anterior~2. Manual therapy techniques commonly used in clinical practice to manage symptoms, as trigger point therapy and pectoralis minor supine manual stretch will be performed as necessary."
