Abstract

Many conditions affecting shoulder which includes rotator cuff tear, frozen shoulder, shoulder instability, bursitis and shoulder impingement. Impingement usually refers to compression and mechanical aberration of the rotator cuff tendon, subacromial bursa, or long head of biceps tendon beneath the anterior under surface of the acromion, coracoacromial ligament or under surface of the acromioclavicular joint during elevation of arm. Another possible mechanism of impinge can be attributed to intrinsic breakdown of the rotator cuff tendon as a result of tension overload. Study design consists of pre-test post-test experimental design, comparative in nature. This study was conducted at N.G. Multispeciality Hospital, Singanallur, Coimbatore, India. The study was conducted for a period of 7 days. 20 shoulder impingement subjects aged between 22 and 35 years who fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected by purposive sampling method and randomly assigned to two groups of 10 subjects each. Group A was assigned for movement with mobilization and Group B for graded oscillatory technique. It is concluded that there is reduction of pain among shoulder impingement subjects treated with movement with mobilization. It is concluded that there is improvement in shoulder function among shoulder impingement subjects treated with movement with mobilization. It is concluded that there is reduction of pain among shoulder impingement subjects treated with graded oscillatory technique. It is concluded that there is improvement also in shoulder function among SHOULDER impingement subjects treated with graded oscillatory technique. It is concluded that movement with mobilization training group showed statistically significant improvement in shoulder function than the other group. It is concluded that movement with mobilization training group showed statistically significant reduction in pain than the other group.
