简要总结
The purpose of this study is to to verify the immediate effects of dynamic cupping on shoulder active range of motion (AROM) of senior male handball athletes.
详细描述
After completing the questionnaire, 80 senior male handball athletes will be randomly divided into two designated groups, Intervention Group (IG; n = 40) (dynamic cupping therapy) and Control Group (CG; n = 40) (no intervention).
Shoulder AROM (flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, horizontal adduction, horizontal abduction, internal rotation and external rotation movements) will be assessed in both control and intervention groups before (M0) and after (M1) intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
active movements of the shoulder
时间窗: [Time Frame: Change from Baseline (M0) to Immediately after intervention or control (M1)]
Data will be collected in two moments: baseline (M0) and after the intervention/control (M1). The shoulder range of motion will be measured using a universal goniometer. Participants will be instructed to perform the various active movements of the shoulder on the dominant upper limb. The assessments of the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction and adduction movements will be performed standing up, controlling possible compensations. To assess abduction and horizontal adduction movements, the participants will remain seated on a massage table. Internal and external rotation movements will be assessed on a massage table in supine, without inclination. Measurements will be considered invalid if the participant is compensated with another body part. Three measures will be collected for each movement and the average of the three will be considered.
