Summary

Adhesive capsulitis (AC) also known as frozen shoulder typically manifests to decrease range of motion (ROM) and function and increase pain in shoulder. Objective of this study is to find the effects of virtual reality (VR) in adhesive capsulitis on pain, range of motion and function to decrease pain and improve range of motion and function. The study design will be a quasi-experimental study that will be used to compare the effects of virtual reality with conventional physical therapy. Subjects with adhesive capsulitis meeting the predetermined inclusion \& exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups using lottery method. Pre assessment will be done using visual analogue scale (VAS), shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) tool and active shoulder flexion and abduction as subjective measurements. Subjects in group A will be treated with virtual reality stimulation given for 30 minutes per session through kinetic Xbox with sensory accelerator model no.1414. Two traditional training activities will be used to improve shoulder Range of motion i.e. shoulders finger ladder training activity and single curved shoulder training activity 12 times (3 rounds in each practice) of the training 1 . Patients will be required to complete standard training task by interacting with designed VR rehabilitative training games under the supervision of physical therapists and subjects in group B will be treated with conventional physical therapy i.e. grade 1 and 2 mobilization and stretching exercise. Baseline treatment protocol hot pack will be applied to both groups.

Treatment duration for both groups will be 30 minutes. Each subject will receive a total 6 week protocol with 02 treatment sessions per week. Post treatment reading will be recorded after the end of 2 nd , 4th and 6th treatment weeks. Recorded values will be analyzed for any change using SPSS 21.

Conventional Physical therapy

Subjects in group A was treated with conventional physical therapy i.e. grade 1 and 2 mobilization and stretching exercise

OTHER

Virtual reality group

group B was treated with virtual reality stimulation given for 30 minutes per session through kinetic Xbox with sensory accelerator model no.1414. Two traditional training activities was used to improve shoulder Range of motion i.e. badminton and American baseball activity 12 times of the training.
