•Patients with MDI: Inclusion criteria
•1. Symptomatic shoulder instability in at least 2 directions (one direction being inferior).
•2. Aged 18 to 35 years
•3. Female. MDI is more prevalent in the female population and excluding males will limit any bias due to potential gender effects.
•4. Right shoulder affected. Participants with a right affected shoulder will be included in this study to limit the potential biases that may result from differences in measuring the left and right sides of the brain from participants with left and right shoulder problems. In this study, fMRI effects of the LEFT brain will be measured from participants with a right sided shoulder problem.
•5. No history of trauma to the affected shoulder
•6. No structural lesion on a clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan.
•7. Ability to understand the English language and willingness to participant in a rehabilitation program.
•Aged Matched Control: Inclusion criteria
•1. Aged and gender matched controls with no history of shoulder problems for each included MDI participant

•Exclusion criteria for MDI and control groups:
•Shoulder instability due to trauma, central nervous system lesions, peripheral lesions and any other neurological disorders
•Patients with significant neck (cervical spine) pathology
•Participants will any history of shoulder surgery
•Inability to understand or speak English
•Existence of MRI contraindications
•Participants who are planning surgery between baseline and follow-up FMRI imaging
•Participants who are or are planning to become pregnant
•Patients with contraindications to standard MRI or fMRI
