Consistent practice of these exercises can help improve overall shoulder function and reduce the risk of future injuries.

    When to avoid this exercise

  • PROM (passive range of motion) exercises are typically recommended for individuals who are unable to move their joints independently due to injury, surgery, or other medical conditions. However, there are certain situations when PROM exercises should be avoided, particularly when it comes to horizontal abduction and adduction exercises.Firstly, individuals with acute joint inflammation or severe pain should avoid PROM exercises as they can further aggravate the condition and cause more discomfort. Similarly, individuals with fractures or dislocations should avoid these exercises until the injury has healed.Individuals with joint instability or hypermobility should also avoid PROM exercises as they can cause further damage to the joint and surrounding structures. Additionally, individuals with a history of blood clots or circulation problems should avoid these exercises as they can increase the risk of blood clots.Furthermore, individuals with a history of joint infections or recent surgery in the affected joint should avoid PROM exercises until they have fully recovered and received clearance from their healthcare provider.In summary, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any exercise program, including PROM exercises. They can assess your individual situation and provide appropriate recommendations to ensure safe and effective rehabilitation.
