Brief Summary

Background: Mirror therapy is an adjuvant treatment option based on shoulder impingement Syndrome Objective:To investigate the effect of mirror theraphy on shoulder impingement Syndrome Methods: The study included 62 participants, including cases in the intervention group (IG) (± years) and 20 cases in the control group (CG) (years) who met the selection criteria. IG received mirror theraphy with regular physiotherapy while CG received only regular physiotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • goniometer

    shoulder range of motion and will be measured

    10 minutes

  • Hawkins test

    impingement tests; forced internal rotation was performed while the arm and elbow were in 90° flexion

    5 minutes

  • Neer test

    subacromial impingement test

    5 minutes

  • Jobe Test

    lesions of the infraspinatus muscle

    5 minutes

  • Constant Murley Score

    functional level of the patients' shoulder joint, higher scores mean a better outcome.

    10 minutes

  • Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale

    will be used to evaluate kinesiophobia, higher scores mean worse outcome.

Interventions

mirror therapyOTHER

The patients in IG will receive exercise program before mirror theraphy. The patient will continue to do the exercises in front of the mirror for the remaining 20 minutes of the exercise. While doing the exercise with the healthy side in front of the mirror, the patient will try to do the same movement with the shoulder diagnosed with impingement syndrome on the other side of the mirror. The patient will try to do the movement correctly with the reflection in the mirror.

mirror therapy group
conventional physiotherapyOTHER

The conventional physiotherapy program included, wand exercises for shoulder abduction, flexion, hyperextension and internal and external rotation, Codman exercises and isometric and resistive exercises of the shoulder girdle. The exercise program is performed under the supervision of an experienced physiotherapist. The isometric exercises will be used during the painful period, and the resistance exercises will be added after the pain began to relieve.under the supervision of a physician in the first 30 minutes of their exercise.
