About

This study evaluates the effectiveness of Gong's mobilization combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation versus conservative exercises in improving range of motion, pain relief, and functional outcomes in patients with adhesive capsulitis.

Full description

Using a randomized controlled design with 36 participants with estimated drop out 10% will be 40, the study will measure changes in active and passive shoulder mobility and SPADI scores after 6 weeks.
