Term
Type of global movements of the shoulder
Definition
Scapulothoracic and scapulohumeral
Term
Movements that fall under
scapulothoracic
Definition
Elevation, depression, abduction, adduction, medial/lateral rotation
Term
Movements that fall under scapulohumeral
Definition
Flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, medial/lateral rotation
Term
Which movements of the torso correspond to movements of the arm?
Definition
Arm flexion is associated with extension of the spine. Arm extension is associated with flexion of the spine. Adduction is associated with ipsilateral sidebending. Abduction causes contralateral sibending. Medial and lateral rotation or arm is associated with similar rotation of the spine.
