Abstract

The impingement symptom is a frequent pathology in sportsmen's shoulders which realize the gesture of throwing. It was described the first time in 1991; however, it wasn’t until three or four years ago, mainly through arthroscopic surgery, when it started to appear in medical and physiotherapeutic diagnostics. The objective of the study is to propose guidelines for the correct physiotherapeutic treatment of this syndrome. For this study, 2 patients diagnosed impingement have been evaluated and treated under the physiotherapeutic protocol adapted to the physiopathology of the injury and the structures implied. The results obtained in a functional shoulder that realizes the gesture of throwing, and in consequence sports, prove the efficiency of the guidelines proposed.
