SUBACROMIAL IMPINGEMENT SYNDROME

This study tested two treatments for shoulder pain caused by subacromial impingement syndrome. 94 adults received either high-intensity laser therapy or a combination of physical therapy treatments, plus exercises. Researchers measured pain, function, and quality of life right af…

This study looked at whether adding scapular stabilization exercises to standard shoulder rehab helps people with subacromial impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. Sixty adults were split into two groups: one did the special exercises, the other did standard reha…

This study looked at whether adding either thoracic extension exercises or kinesio taping to standard shoulder exercises could help adults with shoulder pain (subacromial pain syndrome). 75 people took part, doing shoulder exercises five days a week for three weeks. One group als…

This study looked at whether Pilates exercises can reduce shoulder pain and improve function in people with subacromial impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. 34 adults with shoulder pain for at least three months took part. They were split into two groups: one di…

This study tested whether specific strengthening exercises could help people with shoulder impingement, a common cause of shoulder pain. 40 adults with shoulder pain for over a month took part. The exercises aimed to improve shoulder function and reduce discomfort by targeting ke…

This study tested two different exercise programs—Blackburn stabilization and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)—in 51 adults with shoulder impingement syndrome. Participants did 18 sessions over six weeks, adding these exercises to a standard routine. The goal was t…

This study looked at 44 people with shoulder pain from rotator cuff tears to see if having a sensitized nervous system (central sensitization) changes how well a steroid injection works. Researchers measured pain and movement before and after the injection. The goal was to find o…

This study looked at 101 people with shoulder impingement to see if the angle of a specific shoulder bone (critical shoulder angle) is related to how well they sense their shoulder's position and their level of disability. Researchers measured the bone angle from MRI scans and te…

This study looked at 44 people with shoulder pain from rotator cuff tears to see if their level of central sensitization (a condition where the nervous system is extra sensitive to pain) affected how well steroid injections worked. Researchers measured pain sensitivity before the…
