Abstract
[Purpose] This study developed methods of shoulder supporting banding and shoulder pulling banding using elastic bands for scapular dyskinesis patients with shoulder depression and scapular downward rotation and investigated the effect on shoulder pain and scapular position. [Subject] The subject was a scapular dyskinesis patient with shoulder depression and scapular downward rotation and shoulder pain. [Methods] This study compared the scapular position and upper trapezius pressure pain between before and after applying the shoulder supporting banding and shoulder pulling banding for one month. [Results] The results showed that the acromion depression distance and scapular inferior downward distance decreased and that the pressure pain threshold of the upper trapezius increased after using shoulder supporting banding and shoulder pulling banding for one month. [Conclusion] Therefore, the shoulder banding methods using elastic bands showed positive effect in a scapular dyskinesis patient with shoulder depression and scapular downward rotation.
