dc.description.abstract	To assess and quantify the number, severity and specific location of myofascial trigger points within the shoulder rotator muscle group. To assess the internal/external ratio of the dominant shoulder in throwing athletes using a Cybex 700 dynamometer, after intervention and to establish a comparable clinical profile of the participants.	en
