AB The  shoulder  is  designed  for  mobility  in  all  directional  planes,  but  stability  is  less  than  other  joints.  To  meet  the  many  demands  placed  on  it,  the  shoulder  uses  three  bones,  four  joints,  and  a  specialized  set  of  soft  tissues  consisting  of  muscles,  tendons,  ligaments,  and  bursae.  Common  causes  of  nontraumatic  shoulder  pain  are  subacromial  impingement  syndrome,  rotator  cuff  tears,  acromioclavicular  joint  disease,  adhesive  capsulitis,  and  referred  pain.
