I would like to thank Dr Rothstein and the Conference participants for their discussion and for highlighting the following "take-home" messages. Therapists must analyze the movement problems of patients recovering from shoulder pathologies to determine whether there is a biomechanical or motor control source. Therapists should emphasize quality of movement over quantity of movement when prescribing exercises such as wall-walking for patients with substitution patterns. Lastly, research about prevention, restoration of "normal" movement, and goal setting is required.

The research did not address prevention of future shoulder conditions by elimination of scapular substitution patterns. Examination of pain levels may hint at a possible connection. Three individuals met the inclusion criteria for pain, but they reported low levels of pain or discomfort on the visual analogue scales (VASs) during the reaching task before instruction....
