HYPERALGESIC SHOULDER RECOVERY FOR THE HANDBALL PLAYERS
Abstract
By identifying a number of specific means of recovery and implementing this through a suitable physiotherapy program, combined with the patient’s cooperation, we can positively enhance the quality of life and observe considerable results regarding the hyperalgesic shoulder recovery for the handball players. We propose to show if the operational model helps the patients suffering from scapulohumeral periarthritis to recover. In this research I used specific physiotherapy recovery means such as: electrotherapy, ultrasounds, laser, massage, physical exercises, observing notable results. As assessment methods I used the articular and muscular balance and the Harvard test. The efficiency of the implemented program determined a 60 degrees improvement in shoulder flexion, a 2-step improvement of the muscular balance and a 25 % increase in regards of the Harvard test.
