Digital physiotherapy for shoulder pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares a digital physiotherapy program to standard in-person care for people with subacromial shoulder pain (pain on the side of the shoulder). It aims to see if online treatments can be as effective as clinic visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests two treatments for shoulder pain called subacromial pain syndrome: kinesiology taping (a special stretchy tape) and dry needling (thin needles placed in tight muscles). It aims to see which helps reduce pain and improve movement.
This trial studies a specific therapeutic exercise program for rotator cuff tendon pain and subacromial pain (a pinching-type shoulder problem). It also looks at what changes in your symptoms and body function after the exercises.
This study tests whether dry needling—inserting thin needles into shoulder muscles—can reduce pain in young athletes with subacromial pain syndrome, a common shoulder condition. If you have shoulder pain that limits your sports activity, this trial may help determine if dry needling works better than usual care.
This study tests whether a standard steroid injection for shoulder pain works differently depending on your specific pain type. It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment for each person.
This study tests two non-invasive treatments—corrective external support (like special tape) and regional vibration—for people with subacromial impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. It aims to see if these treatments can reduce pain and improve shoulder function.
