About this listen

This episode does a deep dive on a research report detailing a randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to assess physical therapy interventions for chronic rotator cuff-related shoulder pain (RCRSP). The study compared the effectiveness of muscle strengthening exercises alone versus a protocol combining strengthening with proprioceptive exercises in 70 patients over an eight-week period.


Buccioli ALB, Oliveira AS, Vendramim ACC, Scaglione GD, Roy JS, Rossi DM. Proprioceptive exercises combined with strengthening exercises are not superior to strengthening exercises alone for shoulder pain and disability in individuals with chronic rotator cuff-related shoulder pain: a randomized controlled trial. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther. 2025;55(7):495-511. Epub 16 June 2025. doi:10.2519/jospt.2025.13097
