en حرکت‌شناسی و آسيب‌های ورزشی Kinesiology and Sport Injuries مقاله اصیل Original Article <div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Background. </strong>Shoulder pain is prevalent not only in the general population but also in dancers, who engage their shoulders intensely.<br> <strong>Objectives. </strong>This study aimed to identify practical rehabilitation exercises for Korean traditional dancers suffering from adhesive capsulitis (AC), focusing on the comparative effects of elastic bands and dumbbells.<br> <strong>Methods. </strong>Sixteen female participants diagnosed with shoulder pain were divided into two groups and underwent a 6-week training program involving either elastic bands or dumbbells. Measurements of shoulder joint range of motion (ROM) and pain intensity using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) were collected pre- and post-intervention.<br> <strong>Results.</strong> Both groups demonstrated improvements in ROM and NRS, with large effect sizes; however, differences between groups were not statistically significant.<br> <strong>Conclusion. </strong>Strength training using both elastic bands and dumbbells has a positive influence on shoulder rehabilitation. This suggests that resistance training, regardless of the tool used, is beneficial for recovery. Further research with larger samples and longer durations is recommended.</div> Dancer, Shoulder Pain, Rehabilitation, Adhesive Capsulitis 0 0 http://aassjournal.com/browse.php?a_code=A-11-2451-2&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Hee-Jin Kim jini@sju.ac.kr 100319475328460017503 0009-0007-4436-3013 No Department of Dance, College of Arts & Physical Education, Sejong University, Seoul, Republic of Korea Hea Kyung Choi queenndance@sungshin.ac.kr 100319475328460017504 0009-0002-6085-4035 Yes Department of Dance and Convergence Art, Sungshin Women’s University, Seoul, Republic of Korea
