Clinical Trial Summary

Adhesive capsulitis is painful movement restricted condition linked with pain, restricted range of motion and difficulty in performing daily life activities. Multiple treatment options are there for its treatment. However, role of peripheral neuromuscular facilitation in this regimen is still under consideration.


Clinical Trial Description

Adhesive Capsulitis or peri-arthritis or Frozen Shoulder is self-limiting condition of unknown etiology that usually affects middle aged population of 40-70 years and rarely it occur secondary to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, trauma or immobilization of shoulder joint. It is characterized by development of dense adhesions, capsular thickening and restrictions which limits active and passive shoulder range of motion (ROM) with scapular dyskinesia.The aim of the of the study is to investigate the effects of scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular techniques with routine physical therapy on pain, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder ranges of motion and functionality in patients with adhesive capsulitis. Proper functioning of upper extremities requires both motion and stability of scapula on thorax. Prolonged immobilization of shoulder joint leads to ankylosis of joint and scapular dyskinesia. This study will help with a positive effect by using a non-invasive, less painful, cost effective and time saving approach of scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques among joint mobilization and other therapeutic approaches like intra articular injections and manipulation under anesthesia on alleviating pain, muscle strength, shoulder ranges of motion and early restoration of normal functioning of shoulder joint. ;
