Abstract
<h2>Abstract</h2> Successful rehabilitation of the unstable shoulder presents a challenge. Our increased understanding of the pathomechanics of shoulder instability and the spectrum that it encompasses enable us to design effective evidence-based rehabilitation protocols after instability surgery. With the expanding role of arthroscopy and progressions in surgical technique the therapist and surgeon must work together to plan effective strategies to enhance surgical outcomes. Stabilisation surgery such as Bankart repair and capsular shrinkage aims to restore structural or mechanical stability but also plays a role in restoring proprioceptive capabilities. The therapist utilises this static stability as a basis to re-establish functional stability. Essentially there are many variables that must be considered including surgical, rehabilitation and patient factors. Application of current knowledge regarding the function and rehabilitation of the glenohumeral joint dynamic stabilisers will help to optimise surgical outcomes.
