Shoulder Stability Training With and Without Electrical Stimulation
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding electrical muscle stimulation to shoulder stability exercises helps people with loose, unstable shoulders feel better and move more reliably. You'll do exercises to strengthen the muscles that support your shoulder joint.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 50 years old
- Your shoulder feels loose or unstable in multiple directions (not from an injury or accident)
- You have had shoulder pain or instability for at least 3 months
- You have generalized joint looseness (checking flexibility in multiple joints)
- Your shoulder pain is mild to moderate (not severe) and you can raise your arm above shoulder height
- No previous shoulder surgery, fractures, or dislocation

This trial tests if electrical stimulation can help treat a shoulder subluxation (partial dislocation) that can happen after a stroke. It may be an option for people who had a stroke more than 3 months ago.
This study tests a new exercise program for people with non-traumatic shoulder instability (looseness without injury). It focuses on improving how well your rotator cuff muscles control shoulder rotation.
This trial tests a standardized exercise program for volleyball players who have shoulder instability without a specific injury. It aims to see if these exercises can improve shoulder stability and reduce symptoms.
This trial compares two types of electrical stimulation (TENS alone vs TENS plus muscle stimulation) to reduce shoulder pain after a stroke. It might help if you have had a stroke and are experiencing shoulder pain on your weaker side.
This study tests whether combining cognitive (thinking) exercises with physical rehabilitation after anterior shoulder stabilization surgery helps patients recover better and return to activities faster. You'll do supervised rehabilitation sessions that may include mental challenges alongside physical therapy.
This study tests if a home-use device that uses mild electrical pulses can help people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) move their shoulder better and feel less pain. It is designed to be used at home, making it convenient.
