Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and therapeutic ultrasound combined with home-based exercise in comparison with home-based exercise alone in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS). Participants are going to evaluate before training, and at the 1-month follow-up and 3-month follow-up using the visual analog scale (VAS) scores for pain during activity, at rest, and at night, and the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI).
