Winging Shoulder Blades

Winging shoulder blades (scapulae) are caused by defacilitation of the shoulder blade stabilizing muscles. The 2 main ones are trapezius and serratus anterior. This issue is resolved by treating the trigger points in these muscles and restoring shoulder/head forward posture to normal. Then the muscles can be carefully and progressively strengthened.
