    When to avoid this exercise

  • PROM (passive range of motion) shoulder flexion exercises in a supine position should be avoided in certain situations. These exercises involve moving the shoulder joint without actively using the muscles. They are commonly used in rehabilitation and physical therapy settings to improve joint mobility and flexibility.
