No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Controversy exists regarding the effectiveness of manual therapy techniques for the management of impingement syndrome. However, no adequately powered clinical trials have examined the effects of mobilization-with-movement. The purpose of the current study was to perform a randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of real MWM to a group receiving a sham intervention on shoulder pain at different moments and active shoulder range of motion in an adequately powered sample of patients with shoulder impingement syndrome.
