Supervised versus home exercises for shoulder impingement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to treat subacromial impingement syndrome (a common shoulder condition causing pain with overhead movements): supervised rehabilitation sessions versus exercises you do at home. The goal is to see which approach works better for reducing pain and improving shoulder function.

This trial compares two hands-on therapy techniques for people with shoulder impingement (pain when lifting the arm). It tests if one method works better for reducing pain and improving movement.
This trial looks at whether arthroscopic subacromial decompression surgery helps people whose “impingement” shoulder pain hasn’t improved after supervised exercises and an injection. It may help if your symptoms match their specific non-responder pattern and you can complete rehab visits.
This study compares virtual reality exercises with a hands-on therapy technique (Mulligan mobilization) to improve shoulder posture and function in people with subacromial impingement syndrome. It aims to find which approach may relieve pain and help you move better.
This study looks at whether specific neck and shoulder exercises can help reduce shoulder impingement pain (pain when lifting your arm). It may help you feel better and move more easily without surgery.
This trial tests whether a combination of muscle release and shoulder exercises can improve shoulder movement and reduce pain in tennis players with shoulder impingement—a condition where shoulder structures get pinched during arm raises. The goal is to help you return to play with less discomfort.
This trial tests if kinesiology taping (a special type of tape applied to the shoulder) plus exercises that strengthen the shoulder blades works better than just exercises alone for people with shoulder impingement syndrome (a common cause of shoulder pain). You may qualify if you have had pain on the front or side of your shoulder for at least 3 months and have certain positive tests from a physical therapist.
