There are many studies done on measuring spinal as well ankle and knee positional sense. I have recently had a patient of chronic shoulder impingement who recovered well with pain and achieved full range of motion. He showed a impaired positional sense when I asked him to initiate and stop the movement at desired range.
I would like to know any valid tool to measure the impairment?
Yes, There is one sitting in my office in Nottingham which is about to be moved to the dump. Do you live in the UK?

Yes there is one which I have used for my study on shoulder joint proprioception. It is validated, and still used for overhead sportsmen examination. I have tested at least 3 different tools, and the one came out to be the most precise. It is custom made by the medical company for my study and surely available to produce more.
Thanks Dr Angus and Piotr. It will be great if you share the tool you have used if possible.
