Summary

This study was planned to investigate the acute effects of fascia technique on pain, range of motion, upper extremity functional level, and kinesiophobia in individuals with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.Thirty volunteers with an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were included to study. The individuals were randomly divided into two groups. While hot pack, interferential current and exercise program were applied to the classical physiotherapy group, the fascial release technique was applied to the treatment group in addition to the classical physiotherapy program for 2 weeks with 2 sessions per week. Individuals were assessed for pain severity by using Visual Analog Scale, range of motion by goniometer, functional level by SPADI, kinesiophobia by Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale before and after treatment and satisfaction level by using Visual Analogue Scale after treatment.

Conditions

  • Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

Interventions

OTHER

conventional physiotherapy

For individuals of control group, hot pack applied for 20 minutes in the sitting position, Interferential Current was applied for the analgesic effect at a constant 100 Hz frequency on the anterior, posterior, superior and inferior part of the operated shoulder. By increasing the current slowly, the dosage of the current was adjusted to such a degree that the patient could tolerate it.

OTHER

fascial release

Fascial release technique was applied to the patients in the treatment group besides the control group program. The technique was applied to the cervical, thoracolumbar and upper extremity areas until tissue loosening and releasing were felt.
