Mobilization with movement for rotator cuff injuries
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a gentle hands-on therapy technique called 'mobilization with movement' to help people with partial rotator cuff tears or tendinopathy. It aims to improve shoulder pain and movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 65 years old
- You have had shoulder pain for at least 3 months
- You have a confirmed partial rotator cuff tear or tendinopathy (not a full tear)
- You have not had physical therapy or manual therapy for this shoulder in the last 3 months
- You can actively move your shoulder for the test and treatment

This study compares two physical therapy rehab plans to see which helps people recover better after a severe, irreparable rotator cuff tear. It may help you find the pace of rehab that works best for your shoulder and daily function.
This trial tests whether mental practice of shoulder movements can reduce pain and improve function in people with a partial rotator cuff tear. If you have shoulder pain that hasn't gone away after 4 weeks, this could be an option.
This study tests whether an accelerated (faster) rehabilitation plan after surgery works as well as standard care for people with a large, multi-tendon rotator cuff tear. It may help you recover function sooner, depending on how your tear and health fit the study rules.
This trial studies a specific surgical approach to repair medium to large rotator cuff tears (a common shoulder injury) using minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery combined with biceps tendon repair. It aims to evaluate outcomes in patients who are good candidates for this type of surgery.
This study tests whether a hands-on treatment method called Mulligan's mobilization can reduce shoulder pain and improve function in people with rotator cuff problems. Rotator cuff issues include impingement (pinching), tendon inflammation, or small tears that cause pain but don't require surgery.
This trial tests a hands-on therapy called 'mobilization with movement' for people with shoulder tendon problems. It aims to reduce pain and improve shoulder function without surgery or injections.
