Summary

This study looked at whether Ai Chi, a type of water exercise, can improve how shoulder muscles work in overhead athletes (like swimmers or tennis players) who have scapular dyskinesis—a condition where the shoulder blade moves abnormally. 21 athletes participated. The goal was to see if these exercises could activate key shoulder muscles better, potentially reducing injury risk.
