Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To Determine whether an eight-week posterior shoulder stretch was effective in increasing dominant arm internal rotation(IR) and horizontal adduction (HAd) range of motion (ROM) in a group of overhead athletes identified as having tightness of their posterior shoulder structures.
