Summary

To investigate and compare the effects of Mulligan mobilization versus shock wave therapy in patients with adhesive capsulitis on Pain intensity level, Range of motion, Functional disability level, Ultrasonographic changes (soft tissue thickness) and Hand grip strength.

Conditions

  • Adhesive Capsulitis

Interventions

OTHER

Mulligan mobilization

Mobilization with movement (MWM) is the concurrent application of sustained accessory mobilization applied by a therapist and an active physiological movement to end range applied by the patient. Passive end-of-range overpressure, or stretching, is then delivered without pain as a barrier

DEVICE

Shockwave

From sitting with shoulder abducted at 45 degree and elbow flexed and the forearm rested on flat surface, The patients in the intervention group B received shock wave therapy once a week for 4 weeks. The focus probe sets were used and, in each session, patients received ESWT from anterior and posterior directions (on the average 1200 shocks between 0.1 and 0.3 mJ/mm2) up to the maximum threshold of pain tolerance in the shoulder

OTHER

Conventional treatment

Conventional treatment will be axillary ultrasound and laser ,low loading stretching exercise and home program exercises
