Abstract
INTRODUCTION : Shoulder joint is one of the most functional and rewarding joint necessary for normal daily activities, occupational performance and recreational activities. This joint is later termed as shoulder complex because a series of articulations are necessary to position the Humerus in space. Shoulder pain in commonly caused by impingement of the acromial, coracoclavicular ligament, and acromioclavicular joint over the underlying structures. The impingement is caused by the inflammation of any of the underlying structures. Shoulder pain is measured be using the Visual analogue scale (VAS). AIM : The aim of the study to find out the effects of scapular taping on pain reduction by using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in shoulder impingement syndrome. OBJECTIVES : To determine the improvement brought about by scapular taping with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in shoulder impingement syndrome. MATERIALS & METHODS : MATERIALS – Couch, Cotton, Pillow, Adhesive Tape, Scissor, Surgical Spirit, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). RESEARCH DESIGN - Experimental study design – Pre Vs Post. RESEARCH SETTING - This study has been conducted in Exercise therapy Department of JKKMMRF College of Physiotherapy – PG Studies under the supervision of concerned authority. RESEARCH SAMPLE - The total 20 subjects diagnosed as shoulder impingement pain syndrome were selected by using purposive random sampling method with due consideration of inclusion and exclusion criteria. DATA ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION : The paired t-value 19.09 was greater than the tabulated t-value 2.093 at 0.05% level of significance, which showed that there was significantly reduction of pain between Pre Vs Post test values. Therefore the study was rejecting the null hypothesis and accepting the alternate hypothesis. CONCLUSION : Based on the result the study concluded that the Mc Connel scapular taping technique was effective in pain reduction in shoulder impingement syndrome.
