Effects of Tendon Neuroplastic Training on Pain, Range of Motion and Disability in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy
Overview
EFFECTS OF TENDON NEUROPLASTIC TRAINING ON PAIN, RANGE OF MOTION AND DISABILITY IN PATIENTS WITH ROTATOR CUFF TENDINOPATHY
Detailed description
Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a condition where the shoulder's tendon suffers small tears or inflammation, often causing pain frequently arises from repetitive overuse or the natural aging process Regular overhead activities can aggravate the shoulder's wear and tear, leading to tendinosis.

Data were collected from Riphah rehabilitation clinic Lahore. Nprs , goinmeter and Spadi questioner were used before and after the intervention. Assessment was done through the tool before and after the treatment.
Interventions
- Other tendon neuroplastic training
Throughout the training, participants pain, range of motion and disability were monitored and they were asked to report any discomfort or unusual sign. - Other conventional training
Throughout the training, participants pain, range of motion and disability were monitored and they were asked to report any discomfort or unusual sign.
Primary outcome measures
- Numeric pain rate scale (NPRS) [Time frame: 6 weeks]
- Shoulder pain and disability index (spadi) [Time frame: 6 weeks]
- Universal Goniometer (UG) [Time frame: 6 weeks]
