Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the combined effects of pain neuroscience education plus exercise to exercise alone in the management of patients with chronic rotator cuff tendinopathy regarding pain, function, strength, kinesiophobia, and pain catastrophizing.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tendinosis

Interventions

OTHER

Pain neuroscience education

Three sessions of pain neuroscience education based on explaining patients: characteristics of acute versus chronic pain, function of acute pain, how acute pain is originated within the nervous system, how acute pain progress to chronic pain, and factors that contribute to central sensitization (e.g., emotions, stress, disease and pain beliefs, behaviors regarding pain...). All the explanations will be conducted using easy-understandable examples and metaphors.
