Summary

Pain and limitation of shoulder mobility resulting from sub-shoulder syndrome called sub acromion impingement syndrome (SIS) are a big social problem in highly developed countries. This work aims to compare the method of treating SIS ailments taking into account the monitored exercises on their own- hands off, to the traditional method of individual physiotherapy considering manual therapy, TENS and local cryotherapy- hands on. The study will qualify people aged 18-50 years without previous injections, surgical procedures and physiotherapy within the shoulder joint. The initial examination of the participants will include: ultrasound examination, Neer test, functional mobility test according to FMS, clinical examination: palpation of the joint area, cross body adduction test, radial artery pulse test, numerical pain scale 0-10, DASH questionnaire. After the initial checkups, 60 people will be qualified for the proper examination. Selected participants will be divided into two groups of 30 people, each group consisting of 15 women and 15 men. The first group will undergo self-therapy for 3-5 months. The subjects will exercise independently for about 1.5 hours a day, three times a week. Every two weeks, each subject will be admitted to a follow-up visit, during which the physiotherapist will recommend another set of exercises and check the progress. The second group will undergo traditional physiotherapy three times a week for a period of three months. After a period of 3-5 months, both groups will undergo the same examination as initially. The results of both studies will be compared in both groups. The groups will then be compared to each other.
