简要总结
Purpose: Subacromial impingement syndrome is the most common shoulder condition. Myofascial trigger points in teres major muscle can be associated with this syndrome. The investigators objective is to find out if adding manual therapy specifically for teres major trigger points can produce better results in these patients.
Method: A randomized controlled pilot study was carried out. Fifty people were randomly assigned to one of two groups: intervention group or control group. Both groups received a protocolized physical therapy treatment while the intervention group additionally received manual therapy for teres major trigger points.
