75 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Adhesive Capsulitis

Summary

Frozen shoulder is a common musculoskeletal condition. Painful gradual loss of both active and passive gleno-humeral motion resulting from progressive fibrosis and ultimate contracture of the gleno-humeral joint capsule.Range of motions and capsular pattern affected in frozen shoulder. Physiotherapists have a wide range of options in managing frozen shoulder including Electrotherapeutic modalities, kaltenborn mobilization, Maitland's mobilization,Mulligan's mobilization and Manipulation. So far studies have shown the efficacy of different treatments in combination or in isolation.some studies on Kaltenborn mobilization , but no obseved comparative effects of Kaltenborn mobilization i.e translatoric glides and traction mobilzation in patients with frozen shoulder.In clinically both techniques of kaltenborn are used but there is no evidence regarding which one is more effective. .If found effective,this study can help to use best clinical treatment in the managemnent of frozen shoulder.

Interventions

OTHERConventional physical therapy

Patients will receive hot pack, Broom stick ROM exercises, Codman and strengthening exercises. A total of 10 sessions, 5 sessions per week for 2 consecutive weeks.

OTHERKaltenborn traction mobilization

kaltenborn direction non specific traction mobilization for (1 minute), 3 sets of 10 reps with 1 minute rest in between will be given.

OTHERKaltenborn translatoric glides

Kaltenborn direction specific linear tranlatoric glides, rhtymic 5reps of each glide, such anterior glide for extension and external rotation, caudal glide for abduction,post glide for flexion and internal roation,these3 sets of painless glides will performed with 10 reps,rest of 1 minutes between these sets.
