“…The management options include conservative management through physical therapy (PT) and pharmacological treatment. 13,14 In the early stages of AC, inflammation is an important concern to be addressed while in later advanced stages, restriction in ROM becomes dominant and point of concern. The treatment plan for AC patients is designed according to the severity of disease.…”

Background: Adhesive capsulitis is a painful condition comprises of reduced glenohumeral joint movement and the scapular neuromuscular facilitation techniques is considered effective, non-invasive approach for treating this condition. Objective: To compare the effects of neuromuscular facilitation techniques on clinical outcomes in patients with adhesive capsulitis. Methods: This trial was registered in ClinicaTrials.gov (ref: NCT05151783) and approval was taken (IRB No. 818-II). This single-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted on patients (n=96) having adhesive capsulitis in six months. Non-probability purposive sampling technique was used for randomization via sealed envelope method. Conventional group received routine physiotherapy including ultrasound, hot packs, shoulder range of motion, stretching exercises, and joint mobilization five times per week for four weeks with 40 minutes’ duration of each session. Glenohumeral joint distraction, caudal, dorsal, and ventral glides were given at a rate of 2-3/second oscillations for 1-2 minutes to patients. Visual analogue scale, functional activity was calculated at baseline, 2nd and 4th week. The descriptive statistics (continuous variables) values for each variable in form of means and standard deviations were calculated and their p-values were also calculated using an independent sample t-test. For the qualitative data (categorical variables), frequency and percentage were estimated. Frequencies and percentages of different variables like gender had also been calculated. Repeated measure analysis of variance (ANOVA) was calculated to calculate within-group differences in the mean of each variable between the assessment points. Results: Test of within subject effects showed significant difference for all variables at follow-up and difference between groups also showed significant difference at different follow-ups (p-value≤0.001). Both groups showed statistically significant results (p≤0.001), but scores were higher in experimental group. Conclusion: Scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique along with routine physical therapy are more effective as compared to routine physical therapy alone in patients with adhesive capsulitis.

“…The bulk of medical options for AC are non-surgical and require pharmaceutical and physiotherapy. The purpose of "freezing" therapy should be to control discomfort, minimize inflammation and inform patients [7]. Mild to extreme pain patients who do not respond to non-operative care, intra-articular injection of corticosteroids must be considered [8,9].…”

Frozen shoulder is among the most prevalent and difficult pathological conditions posed to the orthopedic specialist. It is a disorder characterized by a considerable decrease in the vigorous and passive range of motion (ROM) of the glenohumeral joint and pain. This is a systematic review that was carried out, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and EBSCO, and examined randomized controlled trials, observational, and experimental studies that study pharmacological treatment of the frozen shoulder. The study included 6 studies and concluded that treatment of Frozen Shoulder with steroid is safe and provides better recovery. Previous trials showed that patients treated pharmacologically with corticosteroids either orally or injections are significantly more likely to improve on pain and disability than those treated with physiotherapy only.
