Interventions
BEHAVIORAL

scapular stabilization exercises

scapular stabilization exercises 3 times per week for 4 weeks.

DEVICE

ultrasound

Ultrasound 3 times per week for 4 weeks.continuous US operated at a frequency of 1 MHz and at an intensity of 1.5 W/cm2 for 5 minutes

OTHER

Kinesio Tape

"Kinesiotape 3 times per week for 4 weeks. We will apply taping to two muscles (deltoideus and supraspinatus). A Y' tape was placed over the deltoid muscle using the muscle stimulation (KT strip arms were located by stretching slightly by 15%-25%) and mechanical correction techniques (KT strip arms were located with maximal stretching). Another Y tape was placed over the supraspinatus muscle using the muscle inhibition technique (the starting point of the tape was attached to the sub acromial-greater tubercle with submaximal (75%) stretching and without stretching on strip arms)."
