SUBACROMIAL IMPINGEMENT SYNDROME

This study tested whether strengthening the muscles that help keep the shoulder joint stable (humeral head depressors) can improve function and reduce pain in people with subacromial impingement syndrome. Forty participants were split into two groups: one did targeted strengtheni…

This study looked at 75 adults with shoulder pain (subacromial pain syndrome). All did shoulder exercises for three weeks. One group also did back extension exercises, and another group had kinesio tape applied to the upper back. The goal was to see if these add-ons improved pain…

This study looked at whether kinesiotaping (a special elastic tape) can immediately reduce pain, improve body awareness, and fix posture in people with rounded shoulders and shoulder impingement. 114 adults with neck pain took part. Researchers measured pain, posture, and joint p…

This study looked at whether adding specific shoulder blade exercises to a standard rehab program helps people with shoulder impingement syndrome. 60 adults with shoulder pain were split into two groups: one did standard exercises, the other added scapular stabilization moves. Re…

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 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 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 101 people with shoulder impingement syndrome to see if the angle of a certain shoulder bone (the critical shoulder angle) is related to how well they sense their shoulder's position and how much disability they feel. Researchers measured the bone angle from …

This study looked at 44 people with shoulder pain from rotator cuff tears. Researchers wanted to see if a condition called central sensitization (where the nervous system is extra sensitive to pain) changes how well a steroid injection works. Participants received a shot of betam…

This study looked at 44 adults with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain to see if central sensitization (a condition where the nervous system is overly sensitive to pain) affects how well steroid injections work. Participants were assessed before injection using a central sensitiz…
