Summary

This study tests whether adding gentle back (thoracic spine) movements to standard shoulder therapy can better reduce pain and improve movement in people with frozen shoulder. About 34 adults aged 40-65 with stage 2 or 3 frozen shoulder will be randomly assigned to receive either standard shoulder therapy alone or standard therapy plus back mobilization. Researchers will measure pain, shoulder function, and range of motion before and after treatment to see if the combined approach works better.
