more about Shoulder Instability

  • Sensation of shoulder subluxation, especially when the arm is in an overhead position

  • Most patients with Shoulder Instability have a history of recurrent dislocation or subluxation (subluxation refers to an action that causes the head of the humerus to partially slip out of its socket).
  • Damage to shoulder muscles and ligaments often occurs with a shoulder dislocation. If the ligaments become loose and weak, the shoulder becomes unstable and has a tendency to slip out of the socket.


  • Physical therapy to strengthen the muscles and ligaments, especially the rotator cuff muscles.
