Clinical Trial: The Immediate Effects of First Rib Mobilization on Pain and Range of Motion in Patients With Shoulder Pain

U.S., July 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07064772) titled 'The Immediate Effects of First Rib Mobilization on Pain and Range of Motion in Patients With Shoulder Pain' on July 07.
