Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
In a second part of the study 60 patients will be randomly allocated to two groups. Group A (n=30) will perform a traditional training program and group B (n=30) will perform an eccentric training program.
Before the onset of the training programs, pain, function, maximal force, range of motion, subacromial space and force reproducibility will be assessed. Both training programs will be accomplished at home. The first six weeks there will be an appointment with the therapist once a week to explain, correct and when necessary, aggravate the exercises. The next six weeks these appointments will be diminished to once every two weeks.
After 6 and after 12 weeks of training the patients will be reassessed for all the parameters.
