Effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and maitland mobilization technique on pain management and range of motion improvement in frozen shoulder
Author(s): Hariharan S and R Porkodi
Abstract:This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) and Maitland mobilization techniques in treating frozen shoulder. Thirty participants were divided into two groups: Group A received PNF with conventional therapy, and Group B received Maitland mobilization with conventional therapy, both over a 6-week period. Pain and Range of Motion (ROM) were assessed before and after treatment. Results showed that the Maitland mobilization technique was more effective than PNF in reducing pain and improving ROM. The study concluded that Maitland mobilization significantly improves outcomes in frozen shoulder patients based on VAS and ROM assessments.
