Abstract
Frozen shoulder is characterized by fibrosis, thickening, and contracture of the glenohumeral joint capsule, resulting in progressive loss of both active and passive movements. The exact cause is not fully understood, but the condition is often divided into primary (idiopathic) and secondary forms. Primary adhesive capsulitis occurs without any clear underlying pathology, while secondary adhesive capsulitis is associated with systemic conditions such as diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, cardiovascular disease, prolonged immobilization, or post-surgical complications
The purpose of this study research is to compare two groups of patients who practiced myofascial release and therapeutic band technique in frozen shoulder condition. The data will be analysed with a sample size of 100 patients in each group ( Myofascial release and Therapeutic band techniques ). Measurement taken before after the 8 week intervention period will be utilized to compare improvements in pain level, range of motion and functional disability.
