Summary

This randomized control trial aims to compare the effect of myofascial release of subscapularis along with shoulder mobilization VS mobilization alone among patients with adhesive capsulitis. The study will be conducted at physiotherapy outpatient department (OPD) of Sindh Institute of physical medicine and rehabilitation, and Dow University Ojha Campus, Karachi. According to study criteria, 70 patients with sub-acute adhesive capsulitis will be selected through a non-randomized purposive sampling technique by a consultant physician. After taking informed consent, participants will be randomly divided into 2 groups through the sealed envelope method. Both the groups will receive conventional treatment while Group 1 will be given an additional treatment of myofascial release of subscapularis through ischemic compression technique. Total 6 treatment sessions will be provided and assessment will be done at baseline and end of the 6th session.
