Does Passive Mobilization of Shoulder Region Joints Provide Additional Benefit Over Advice and Exercise Alone for People Who Have Shoulder Pain and Minimal Movement Restriction? A Randomized Controlled Trial
Phys Ther. 2011 Feb;91(2):178-89. Epub 2011 Jan 6.98 patients presenting with shoulder pain and minimal mobilization restrictions were randomized to either a group receiving passive movement of shoulder region joints paired with exercises and advice or a control group receiving only exercise and advice. The results from this study indicated that the addition of passive mobilization of shoulder region joints did not provide any additional benefits to patients. This finding does not support the use of passive mobilization at the shoulder region joints for the treatment of shoulder pain with minimal movement restriction.
