Summary

This study looked at whether doing exercises in virtual reality (VR) can help people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) feel less pain, move better, and improve their quality of life. 36 adults with frozen shoulder took part. They used VR to do their exercises, and researchers measured pain, shoulder movement, and daily function. The goal was to see if VR can make rehab more enjoyable and effective.
