Psychosocial Factors of Persistent Shoulder Pain

After the baseline evaluation, all participants will take part in an education intervention, aiming at promoting self-management of shoulder pain, that will include two one-on-one sessions (approximately 30-45 minutes) within 2 weeks with a physiotherapist (1st session right after the baseline evaluation, 2nd session two weeks later). Participants will receive written information regarding shoulder (anatomy and function) and basic pain science and will be directed to watch a series of six educational videos on shoulder pain and function, persistent pain, physical activity, stress, sleep and eating habits. It should be noted that the objective of this study is not to assess the effectiveness of the intervention; the purpose of offering an intervention to participants is to control the intervention that will be received by them.
