Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Participants with subacromial pain syndrome underwent shoulder exercises. In addition to the exercises, group A received thoracic extension exercise and group B received kinesio taping. All exercises were performed five days per week for three weeks. Thoracic extension exercise was performed once a week and remained in place for 5 days. Evaluations were performed one to three days before and one to three days after the three-week exercise program.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Seventy-five adults with subacromial pain syndrome were randomized into three groups. Group A and Group B received thoracal extension exersice and thoracal kinesiotaping in addition to shoulder exercise, respectively, while Group C received only shoulder exercise. All exercises were performed five days a week for three weeks. Thoracal extension exercise was applied once a week and remained in place for 5 days. Assessments were conducted one to three days before and one to three days after the three-week exercise program. Shoulder pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (PPT) of the upper trapezius and pectoralis major, self-reported function and health status, active range of motion (AROM), and isometric strength of the shoulder were assessed.
