ABSTRACT
The purpose of this case study was to compare the effectiveness of traditional physical therapy interventions combined with mobilization with movement in the treatment of shoulder impingement syndrome. A total of 5 patients diagnosed with shoulder impingement syndrome were selected from the hospital. Patients then participated in the programs, which were held twice a week for two months. Main outcome measures included 24-hour pain [VAS], shoulder active range of motion [AROM], and shoulder function [SPADI]. Repeated-measures analyses indicated significant decreases in pain, improved function, and increases in AROM. The MWM had a higher percentage of change from pre- to post-treatment on pain measures pain [VAS] 0.6 to 0.2 following 4 session treatment, higher percentage of change on the SPADI and in AROM. This study suggests that performing glenohumeral mobilizations and MWM in combination with a supervised exercise program may result in a greater decrease in pain and improved function although studies with larger samples and discriminate sampling methods are needed
