Summary
This study tested two hands-on treatments for frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) in 66 adults aged 40-65. One group got quick thrusts to the joint, the other got a gentle muscle relaxation technique. Both reduced pain and improved shoulder motion over four weeks, but the muscle energy technique worked significantly better. The goal was to ease symptoms, not cure the condition.
