Effect of Proprioceptive Intervention Training on Power Capacity, Proprioceptive Ability and Technique of Young Swimmers

January 11, 2016 updated by: Hillel Yaffe Medical Center
Many children and adolescents who engage in swimming complain of shoulder pain during or after exercise. This pain may worsen and may lead to a decline in performance as well avoidance of swimming and lastly avoidance of any physical activity whatsoever. The aim of this study is to determine whether proprioceptive intervention training will effect the power capacity, proprioceptive ability and technique of young swimmers.
