No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Determine if adding "extra-gravity" (sustained increase in vertical loading) during standard rehabilitation exercises has a beneficial effect on pain reduction in subjects suffering from shoulder pain of different origin.

Conditions

  • Shoulder Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Hypergravity

the rubber bands attached to the waist belt are tighten to simulate extra gravity during every exercise the subject performs while standing

OTHER

isometric load

at the end of the therapy session the subject will perform 2 sets of one minute each of a 33% squat under load

OTHER

normal gravity

the rubber bands attached to the waist belt are NOT tighten so the subject performs the exercises in normal gravity
