Summary

The primary objective of the present study is to evaluate if a single acute BFR low load- exercise bout would reduce pain in patients with nonspecific shoulder pain and whether the potential hypoalgesia will be maintained after a 45-minute physical therapy shoulder exercise session. BFR exercise will be compared to a sham BFR exercise protocol. We hypothesize that the participants in the BFR group in will experience reduced pain and will be able to complete a scapula and rotator cuff muscles exercise loading program with reduced pain until the end of the exercise program.
