Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Mulligan Mobilization techniques, Mobilization with Movement (MWMs) and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) techniques, Hold-Relax Active Movement Technique, on pain, normal joint range of motion, proprioception, scapular dyskinesia and functional status in individuals with rotator cuff syndrome. A total of 60 people were included in the study: 20 participants in the censervative rehabilitation group (Conservative Treatment), 20 participants in the Treatment A (Mulligan Mobilization Application) Group, and 20 participants in the Treatment B (PNF Application) Group. Individuals were treated for 5 days for 4 weeks. Pain before and after treatment with Visual Analog Scale; joint range of motion with goniometer; With proprioception Angle Repetition Test; Scapular dyskinesia with Lateral Scapular Slide Test; quality of life with SF-36; shoulder functionality was assessed with the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Scale (WORC).
