This study tests whether adding the Niel Asher technique (a type of massage) to standard physical therapy helps people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) more than standard therapy alone. The study will include 36 adults aged 40-60 who have had frozen shoulder for at leas…

This study compares two physical therapy methods—Gong's mobilization and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)—for treating frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). It includes 44 women aged 40-60 with unilateral frozen shoulder. Over 4 weeks, participants receive one of …

This study looks at whether adding a muscle-release technique to standard shoulder exercises can better reduce pain and improve movement in people with frozen shoulder (stage II). About 58 adults aged 35–70 with shoulder stiffness and pain will receive either exercises alone or e…

This study explores whether immersive virtual reality exercise therapy can reduce pain, improve shoulder function, sleep, and thinking skills in people with mild to moderate frozen shoulder (grade 1-2). About 36 adults aged 18-64 who are new to physiotherapy will use VR headsets …

This study tests whether adding a suprascapular nerve block (a temporary numbing injection) to standard frozen shoulder treatments helps people recover faster. About 62 adults with frozen shoulder will receive either the standard treatment alone or the standard treatment plus the…

This study compares two treatments for early frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): manipulation under anesthesia and a supervised home rehabilitation program. Researchers will enroll 300 adults aged 40 to 80 who have had symptoms for 3 months or less. The goal is to see which ap…
