Adhesive capsulitis is a condition characterized by progressive declination range of motion at the glenohumeral joint due to tightness of capsule. The joint capsule and its surrounding connective tissue becomes stiffed, inflamed and shortened which in return causes decrease in range of motion that progress to chronic pain and stiffness. Adhesive capsulitis is a self-limiting disorder that resolves within 1-3 years.
Idiopathic (primary) adhesive capsulitis occurs spontaneously without a specific precipitating event. Primary adhesive capsulitis results from a chronic inflammatory response with fibro elastic proliferation, which may actually be an abnormal response from the immune system. Secondary adhesive capsulitis occurs after a shoulder injury or surgery or may be associated with another condition such as diabetes, rotator cuff injury, cerebrovascular accident or cardiovascular disease, which may prolong recovery and limit outcomes The prevalence of adhesive capsulitis is estimated at 2% to 5% of the general population. Frozen shoulder mainly affects individuals of 40-65 years of age with a female predominance. Adhesive Capsulitis follows a capsular pattern where external rotation is greatly restricted followed by abduction and internal rotation. Adhesive capsulitis is classically characterized by three stages. The length of each stage is variable, but typically the first stage (freezing) lasts for 3 to 6 months, the second stage (frozen) from 3 to 18 months and the final stage (thawing) from 3 to 6 months Currently various techniques are used, such as the application of moist heat, strengthening exercises, stretching and manual exercises for the treatment of Adhesive Capsulitis .Manual therapy techniques such as high and low grade glenohumeral mobilizations ,Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques, Muscle energy Techniques, Mobilization with movement, and Sleeper stretch all have been proved effective for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis through different researches. Conservative treatment includes various exercises method and physical therapy modalities such as a heat therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), Ultrasound (US), Acupuncture and (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) LASER

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| mobilization with movement and conventional therapy | Experimental | Mobilization with movement for Flexion, Abduction, Internal rotation, external rotation |
|
| sleeper stretch along with conventional therapy | Experimental | IT will be performed with the patient in side lying on the affected side to stabilize the scapula against the table and both the shoulder and elbow flexed to 90°.In this position, passive Internal Rotation is applied to the affected shoulder by the therapist or patients opposite hand. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| NPRS (Numeric Pain Rating Scale) | The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) measures the subjective intensity of pain. The NPRS is an eleven-point scale from 0 to 10. "0" = no pain and "10" = the most intense pain imaginable. intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.74 for shoulder pain. | four weeks |
| Goniometer | Shoulder range of motion i.e. Shoulder Flexion, Extension, Abduction, Adduction, Internal rotation, External rotation will be measured using goniometer, intraclass correlation coefficient for using goniometer for shoulder joint Range Of Motion ranges from 0.91 to 0.99 | four weeks |
| SPADI (Shoulder Pain and Disability Index) | The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a patient completed questionnaire with 13 items assessing pain level and extent of difficulty with Activities of Daily Livings requiring the use of the upper extremities. The pain subscale has 5-items and the Disability subscale has 8-items. The patient is instructed to choose the number that best describes their level of pain and extent of difficulty using the involved shoulder. The pain scale is summed up to a total of 50 while the disability scale sums up to 80. The total SPADI score is expressed as a percentage. A score of 0 indicates best 100 indicates worst. A higher score shows more disability. SPADI is reliable for subjects with Adhesive capsulitis, intraclass correlation coefficient for pain scale=0.989 and intraclass correlation coefficient for disability=0.990 | four weeks |
| Scapulohumeral Rhythm | Scapular upward rotation will be measured using inclinometer placed at the spine of scapula. Patient will be advised to perform shoulder abduction and measurements will be taken at 3 degrees i.e. 0 to 45degree, 0 to 90 degree, 0 to 120 degree. 3 measurements will be taken at each range and then their mean will be calculated. Scapulohumeral rhythm will be measured by dividing humeral elevation with scapular upward rotation. Scapulohumeral rhythm=humeral elevation/scapular upward rotation. The intraclass correlation coefficient for measuring Scapulohumeral rhythm using inclinometer is > 0.892. |
