Abstract: Background of the study: Shoulder impingement syndrome, the most common diagnosis of shoulder dysfunction, is often described as shoulder pain exacerbated by overhead activities. The most common symptoms in impingement syndrome are pain, weakness and a restricted movement at the affected shoulder. Various physiotherapy approaches are available to treat the patients with shoulder impingement syndrome. This study was an attempt to find an effects of mobilization with movement on shoulder pain and range of motion among shoulder impingement syndrome patients. Objective of the study: The objective of the study was to find the effects of mobilization with movement on shoulder pain and range of motion in shoulder impingement syndrome patients. Methodology: 20 patients with shoulder impingement syndrome were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were treated with mobilization with movement technique. The pain was measured by VAS scale and range of motion of shoulder internal rotation and horizontal adduction is measured by goniometer. Conclusion: Mobilization with movement technique shows significant reduction in shoulder pain and increased range of motion in shoulder impingement syndrome patients.
