Concentric contraction exercise
The participant will be placed in a standing position, with the shoulders positioned in the scapular plane. A medium stiffness Theraband elastic band will be placed between the participant's ipsilateral foot on the side on which the dry needling technique was applied and the acromio-clavicular joint on the same side.The exercise will consist of raising the shoulder against the resistance of the elastic band, slowly and for 5 seconds
Isometric contraction exercise
The participant will be placed in a standing position, with the shoulders positioned in the scapular plane. A medium stiffness Theraband elastic band will be placed between the participant's ipsilateral foot on the side on which the dry needling technique was applied and the acromio-clavicular joint on the same side.The exercise will consist of raising the shoulder and maintaining the tension of the elastic band for 5 seconds

The participant will be placed in a standing position, with the shoulders positioned in the scapular plane. A medium stiffness Theraband elastic band will be placed between the participant's ipsilateral foot on the side on which the dry needling technique was applied and the acromio-clavicular joint on the same side.The exercise will consist of asking the participant to lower their shoulder, against the resistance of the elastic band, in a slow and controlled manner for 5 seconds.
Analytic passive stretching
The patient remains supine position. The analytical passive stretch of the upper trapezius will be performed only once, bringing the muscle to the limit of elastic tension perceived by the subject. The passive stretching technique will be held for 30 seconds.
