Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a CNS-directed treatment program versus a standard medical and physiotherapy care program on outcomes in participants with FS.Participants will be randomized to receive either a 10 weeks CNS-focused treatment program or standard medical and physiotherapy care.To evaluate the results of the interventions, the subjects will be assessed at the beginning, at the end of the treatment program (week 10) and at 3 and 6 months of follow-up.

Conditions

  • Adhesive Capsulitis of Shoulder
  • Frozen Shoulder

Interventions

OTHER

CNS-focused treatment

The CNS-focused treatment will last for 10 weeks, conducted in 60-minute sessions on a weekly basis. In addition, participants in this group will complete a home treatment program for 30 minutes, five times a week.

OTHER

Standard Care Treatment

The standard physiotherapy group will receive a 10-session treatment program that will include one corticosteroid infiltration provided in the early acute stage followed by a multimodal physiotherapy program including analgesic modalities (e.g. TENS, cryotherapy) and exercise and manual therapy techniques addressing the specific mobility deficits of each patient. This program also include a home treatment based on conventional physiotherapy that involves a training load comparable to that in the CNS-focused group.
