Effects of diaphragm muscle treatment in shoulder pain and mobility in subjects with rotator cuff injuries: A dataset derived from a pilot clinical trial.

ABSTRACT: The rotator cuff inflammatory or degenerative pathology is the main cause of shoulder pain. The shoulder and diaphragm muscle have a clear relation through innervation and the connection through myofascial tissue. A prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind (assessor) pilot clinical trial was performed with a sample size of 27 subjects with rotator cuff injuries and with clinical diagnosis of myofascial pain syndrome at shoulder. The sample were divided into 3 groups of treatment (9 subjects per group):1.A direct treatment over the shoulder by ischemic compression of myofascial trigger points (MTP) (control / rotator cuff group).2.Diaphragm manual therapy techniques (diaphragm group).3.Active diaphragm mobilization by breathing exercises (breathing exercises group).The pain and ran
