Functional Electrical Stimulation for Rehabilitation of a Shoulder Joint

Effect of a Rehabilitative Exercises Program With Using Therapeutic Massage, and Electrical Stimulation to Restore the Efficiency of Rotary Cuff Muscles of the Shoulder Joint for Juniors Dolphin Swimmers

“…Also, Wael Muhammad Omar indicates that electrical stimulation works on muscle contraction, a contraction that is very similar to the natural contraction of muscles, so it can be used and relied upon to regulate the work of muscle fibers, improve muscle tone, and strengthen muscles. [19] M. W. Romanowski believes that therapeutic rehabilitative exercises work to improve muscular sensation and regulate the work of the muscles responsible for work and movement, and thus regulate the function of the motor nerves, as by, repetition of the movement, nerve signals are transmitted easily between the nerve fibers with each other, thus helping the injured organ to return to its normal state to perform its full function. [29] The results of this study agree with those of John Bradley et al, Rima Imad Jassem Huda Badawi Shabab, Muhammed Qadri Abd God 2021, Marwa Muhammad Al-Adrousi, Carole Torres and others, et al Karolyn Toros 2021, Yuiko Matsuura and others, in that The proposed rehabilitation programs with their content, whether (devices or tools), which take into account the individual differences between swimmers, had a positive and statistically significant effect between the pre and post measurements of the experimental group in favor of the post measurement in developing the muscle strength of the muscles working on the shoulder joint of the injured swimmers.…”

“…Muhammad Nasr El-Din Radwan that therapeutic massage reduces muscle tension, increases relaxation, relieves pain, muscle soreness, and tension, improves blood circulation by increasing the amount of blood supplied to the muscles, lowers heart rate and blood pressure, and improves the functions of the immune system. [19] E. M. Medica believes that the shoulder joint performs functional tasks while performing life and sports movements, as an injury (muscle, ligament, or nerve) that works on the shoulder joint affects its motor function, and the natural movement of the joint stops, leading to poor blood circulation. In the region, the ligaments of the joints are subjected to contraction and stiffness, and the condition is accompanied by damage, deficiency, and atrophy in the muscles and tendons, a decrease in muscle strength, and a decrease in flexibility.…”
