Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
All participants underwent the same physical therapy treatment. They received 10 individual sessions of physical therapy of 1 hour each, scheduled 3 times per week.
In the experimental group we added motor imagery exercises into classical physical therapy sessions, during rest time between two sets of actual exercises. Practically, participants from our experimental group were requested to imagine the same movement that was actually performed beforehand. The control group was subjected to a period of neutral activities during equivalent time, without performing motor imagery at all. Accordingly, they spent the same amount of time to discuss with the experimenter of world news not related to their illness. The whole session lasted 1 hour including 45 minutes for physical therapy and 15 minutes for MI or discussion.

Comparator / control treatment
Conventional physical therapy started by application of ultrasound on the painful points during 5 minutes. Then, in order to relieve pain and increase motion, the pendulum exercise was carried out. Participants were then given strengthening active exercises with and without weights. The 6 main shoulder movements were systematically performed (flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, medial and lateral rotations). These same movements were then carried out by the physiotherapist during passive exercises in order to increase range of motion. At the end of each session, the participants were administered cryotherapy during 5 minutes.
