Progress of Proprioceptive Training in the Treatment of Traumatic Shoulder Instability

In individuals with traumatic shoulder instability, there is a loss of proprioception. This paper reviews the academic literature on shoulder instability and functional impairment in recent years and combines it with clinical practice experience to summarize several techniques of proprioceptive regeneration following traumatic shoulder instability. Many issues were discovered, including a lack of literature on the role of sensory input, a lack of basic proprioceptive research, insufficient sample size in proprioceptive research, and a lack of systematic and standardized standards for the evaluation and training of proprioception in clinical practice, among others. In the future, we will need to better understand the mechanism of proprioception and conduct research on various groups of people, with a focus on discussing the optimal intensity, frequency, and duration of various training methods, as well as implementing proprioceptive training in stages throughout the rehabilitation process. The reestablishment of shoulder joint function, the restoration of proprioception, and the enhancement of daily activities are all critical.
