Summary
This study tests whether a program of specific shoulder exercises can improve muscle function and reduce pain in women who have had a mastectomy. Sixty women aged 35-55 with shoulder problems will be enrolled. The exercises focus on strengthening and stabilizing the shoulder blade muscles. Researchers will measure muscle activity and shoulder function before and after the program.
