Interventions

BEHAVIORALPatient Education

It includes evaluation of the treatment process and past sessions. Simple shoulder biomechanics, function, and what caused the injury were explained to the patients. In order to increase patients' participation in treatment, it was emphasized what the treatment does and that the patient should cooperate in order to heal. During their treatment, patients are instructed to regulate their daily living activities, avoid overhead and repetitive movements of the arm, bags weighing more than 2-3 kg, etc. It was recommended not to carry them. Patients were informed about alternative sleeping positions.

BEHAVIORALExercise Therapy

Participants in both groups were included in a structured exercise program consisting of exercises recommended in the literature. This exercise program includes joint range of motion exercises, stretching exercises and strengthening exercises and was carried out under the supervision of a physiotherapist for 6 weeks. Joint range of motion and strengthening exercises are recommended as 3 sets of 10 repetitions, and stretching exercises are recommended as 5 repetitions for 20 seconds. Exercises appropriate to the patients' clinical conditions and progression were selected by the physiotherapist and included in the program.

BEHAVIORALCold Application

Following each exercise treatment, cold-pack will be applied for 15 minutes. During col-pack application, patients in the Group 1 group will listen to classical music selected by us, while patients in the Group 2 will rest quietly. There are a total of 40 songs by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and Andre Rieu on our CD player, and patients have the right to choose and listen to the song they want.
