Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to find the additional effects of Niel-Asher technique along with sleeper stretch and conventional physical therapy on pain, shoulder ranges of motion and functional disability in patients with Adhesive capsulitis

Conditions

  • Adhesive Capsulitis

Interventions

OTHER

Niel-Asher Technique + sleeper stretch

Niel-Asher Technique, Manual Soft Tissue releaser, Neuro-muscular release technique for adhesive capsulitis ( This manual technique will be applied for 3 days a week for 4 weeks).Sleeper stretch will be applied passively by investigator, pressure of the stretch will be held for 30 seconds (repeated twice with 30 seconds break for 3 days a week) Conventional PT including 1: shoulder anteroposterior, posteroanterior and inferior glides ( 3 times a week for 4 week) 2: active and active assisted ROM exercises of shoulder joint (frequency: 1 set of 10 repetitions twice a day). 3: Shoulder Isometric exercises, Codman's exercises and pulley and finger ladder exercises (frequency: 1 set of 10 repetitions twice a day), 4: trigger points will be released by applying ischemic pressure (90 seconds) on trigger points found in rotator cuff muscles.
