No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation, a non-invasive method, will be used in the study. Studies have shown that vagus nerve stimulation combined with a large vagal nerve network can have a neuromodulatory effect that will activate some natural protective pathways to improve health. Clinically, vagus nerve stimulation is FDA-approved for epilepsy, treatment-resistant depression, and morbid obesity. Since OSS dysfunction is also involved in the etiology of DO and there is no study on the effectiveness of vagus nerve stimulation in this disease, this study is planned to reveal the effectiveness of auricular vagus nerve stimulation and home exercise program in DO patients.

Conditions

  • Being in the 18-50 Age Population
  • Being Diagnosed With Frozen Shoulder by a Specialist Physician
  • Volunteer to Participate in the Study

Interventions

DEVICE

vagus nerve stimulation

Vagus stimulation, TENS device with specially designed and shaped surfaces that can be shaped according to the magnifying ear will be performed. The electrodes will be placed in such a way that the tragus is facing the inner and outer world. The wave formula is biphasic asymmetrical, pulses less than 500 microseconds and 10 hertz for 30 minutes. will be custom-made and the amplitude will be set as the sensory threshold.
