Subacromial pain syndrome is one of the most common musculoskeletal health conditions, causing decreased of range of motion, loss of muscle strength and disability in the shoulder region. It has been proposed that dynamic humeral centering exercises could contribute to overcome these disorders, through the modification of the dimensions of the subacromial space, however, there is no consensus on its effectiveness nor direct variables that account for its efficacy. Therefore, the aim of this research is to determine the effects of a dynamic humeral centering exercise program on the functionality and disability of patients with subacromial pain syndrome.The effects of the dynamic humeral head exercises program, as well as the objective description of factors and variables associated with subacromial pain syndrome, will also allow rehabilitation science professionals to aim their interventions according to the knowledge of direct variables, which will allow objective follow-up of interventions on subacromial pain syndrome diagnosed patients.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Older than 18 years old and less than 60 years old.
• Pain in the lateral and upper arm region for more than two weeks of evolution.
• At least three positive tests in the following: Neer's impingement sign, Hawkins-Kennedy impingement sign, Pattes' maneuver, Jobe's test or painful arch.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Having any of the following diagnoses: frozen shoulder, shoulder girdle joint instability, cancer, glenohumeral arthrosis, symptomatic acromioclavicular arthritis, glenohumeral arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or fibromyalgia.
• Cervical or thoracic pain.
• Fracture or surgery in the shoulder region or in the last 6 months.

The information will be provided to other researchers upon request to the principal investigator of the project.

Data will be available once there are publications associated with the clinical trial. These data will be available for 4 years.
