What this trial measures

  • Muscle activity during functional taskImmediately after treatment administration (Day 1)

    Intramuscular electromyography will be used to record muscle activity during a functional task

  • Subacromial space sizeImmediately after treatment administration (Day 1)

    Ultrasound imaging will be used to measure the size of the subacromial space
