Summary

Adhesive capsulitis is defined as a condition characterized by pain and stiffness in shoulder which results in both active and passive movement loss. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of shoulder directed treatment approach using Myofascial arm pull technique on the pain, range of motion and quality of life in patients with adhesive capsulitis and compare its effectiveness with Post Isometric Relaxation technique.

Conditions

  • Adhesive Capsulitis

Interventions

OTHER

Myofascial arm pull technique

patient in supine position move the arm passively in abduction to the restricted barrier and pull the arm only enough traction was used to counterbalance the weight of the patient's arm. Stretch was hold until the fibers were released, and then, stretch was given again by increasing traction. This sequence was repeated until an end feel was reached. same procedure for flexion and scapular protraction and Horizontal-adduction. Repetition will be 4-5 reps. per set, 3 times per week for 18 sessions.

OTHER

post isometric relaxation technique

The therapist stood in front of the patient, then placed one hand over the top of the subject's involved shoulder. The therapist cups the gleno humeral joint to palpate for motion and the subjects are directed to press the elbow towards therapist hand for shoulder abduction, internal rotation and external rotation. Muscle energy technique was applied for five repetitions per set, five sets per session, one session per day, three days a week for six weeks with each repetition maintained for the duration of 7-10 second
