Backgrounds: Shoulder impingement is a mechanical compression of the rotator cuff and subacromial bursa against the anterior undersurface of the acromion and coracoacromial ligament, particularly during elevation of the arm. In more recent literature, impingement has been described as a group of symptoms rather than a specific diagnosis. In this current opinion, it is thought that numerous underlying pathologies may cause impingement symptoms. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare among three physical therapy programs in treatment of shoulder impingement syndrome. Patients And Methods: Sixty patients diagnosed as shoulder impingement syndrome due to functional causes (stage II Neer classification) participated in this study. They were randomly distributed into three equal groups. The experimental group (A) with mean age of 36.60 (+ 5.33) years, this group was treated by a program of physical therapy consisted of strengthening the rotator cuff muscles and stretching the posterior capsule. The experimental group (B) with mean age of 37.25 (+ 3.67) years this group was treated by a combined program of stretching the posterior capsule and correcting scapular dyskinesis
