However, the relationships are not clear in individuals without complaints of pain in the shoulder or spine. Objective: to evaluate the flexibility, muscle flexibility, range of motion and strength of the cervical and thoracolumbar spine musculature in asymptomatic individuals with and without scapular dyskinesis. Methods: Fifty-two individuals were divided into two groups: scapular free (age 22.95 ± 2.86) and scapular dyskinesis (age 22.06 ± 2.73). A scapular dyskinesis was evaluated through the Scapular Dyskinesis Test, a posture of the upper quadrant of the body through biophotogrammetry, such as flexion, extension, lateral flexion of the cervical and thoracolumbar spine and cervical spine rotation were evaluated with a digital inclinometer, and maximal strength of the flexor, extensor and lateral flexor cervical and thoracolumbar muscles with a manual dynamometer. For all variables, a comparison between the groups was used through analysis of variance (ANOVA one way), considering p≤0.05. Results: There was no difference (p> 0.05) between the groups for any of the variables. Conclusion: The aspects of posture, mobility and muscular strength of the spine do not differ between individuals with or without scapular dyskinesis.Acesso AbertoEscápulaFlexibilidadeOmbroTroncoCervicalmasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::FISIOTERAPIA E TERAPIA OCUPACIONAL
