This paper describes the effectiveness of Hold-Relax technique upon increased range of motion in shoulder external rotation. Subjects consisted of 130 normal young university students (60 males and 70 females) whose mean age was 22.2 years, ranging from 18 to 29. The mean range of motion prior to 10-times isometric exercise showed 71.5 degrees and 80.6 ones after the exercise, which indicated a significant difference at the 1 % level in paired t test. The findings of this study suggest that Hold-Relax technique, one of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitations, is effective in the evaluation and the training of shoulder external rotation of patients with an impaired shoulder.
