Abstract:The study is to compare the effects of scapular clock exercises and scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on pain and functional activities in subjects with adhesive capsulitis.
Introduction: Adhesive capsulitis is most commonly referred to as frozen shoulder or periarthiritis shoulder, a self-limiting condition of unknown aetiology. To determine the effect of scapular clock exercises on shoulder range of motion and pain in adhesive capsulitis and to determine the effect of scapular on proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation shoulder range of motion and pain in adhesive capsulitis, to compare scapular clock exercises and scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on shoulder range of motion and pain in adhesive capsulitis.
Methodology: This study is a comparative pre and post test study design. A total of 30 subjects, aged between 40-60 years both the genders having adhesive capsulitis were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Group A consist of 15 subjects were treated with scapular clock exercises for 10 repetitions 2 sets for 8 weeks (24 Session) and Group B consist of 15 subjects were treated with scapular proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises for 10 repetitions 2 sets for 8 weeks (24 Session).
Outcome measure: Visual Analog Scale & Shoulder Pain and Disability Index.
Results: On comparing the mean values of Group A & Group B between Pre test and Post test on VAS score & SPADI score shows significant difference in the mean values at P ≤ 0.05.
