She delves into the subjective and objective findings associated with mobile shoulders, including key clinical exam indicators like pain at end ranges and excess glenohumeral joint motion. Lindsey emphasizes the importance of correct treatment approaches for mobile shoulders and shares insights on how physical therapists can effectively manage these cases.
