abduction awareness

Abduction awareness refers to understanding and recognizing the movement of the shoulder joint, specifically the action of lifting the arm away from the body’s midline. It involves the shoulder muscles working together to raise the arm sideways. Being aware of this movement is important for diagnosing injuries, improving athletic performance, and maintaining proper shoulder function. It also helps prevent strains or dislocations by promoting correct technique during activities that involve lifting or reaching sideways. Overall, abduction awareness enhances the ability to control shoulder movements safely and effectively.
