"Evidence of the Use of Virtual Reality Versus Manual Therapy and Therapeutic Exercise in Rotator Cuff Injury"
Sponsor: University of Alcala
Summary
This study evaluates the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) compared to manual therapy and therapeutic exercise in treating rotator cuff injuries. It involves 108 participants divided into two groups: one receiving VR combined with manual therapy and therapeutic exercise, and the other receiving only manual therapy and therapeutic exercise. The study spans 10 weeks, with assessments at the beginning, midpoint, and end. Variables measured include quality of life, perceived pain, shoulder disability, strength, pain intensity, and shoulder mobility. The aim is to determine if VR provides better outcomes in these variables compared to conventional treatments.
