Purpose: This study investigated the effects of the Neurac technique on shoulder pain, function, and range of motion in patients with acute-phase subacromial impingement syndrome.
Subjects: Thirteen patients (seven females and six males) with acute-phase subacromial impingement syndrome participated in this study.
Methods: Shoulder pain, function, and range of motion were assessed before and after the application of the Neurac technique.
Results: Pain and function scores were significantly lower after than before the Neurac intervention.
Shoulder range of motion was significantly greater after Neurac intervention than before it.
Conclusion: The Neurac technique is a useful intervention for patients with acute-phase subacromial impingement syndrome.
