Summary

This study focus on the rehabilitation of patients with frozen shoulder through a manual technique called "Spencer MET".The purpose of this approach is to reduce the pain and improve the ROM and quality of life.

Detailed description

By comparing the effectiveness of functional electrical stimulation versus the Spencer technique in patients with adhesive capsuilitis is to determine which treatment approach will yields better outcomes in order to reduce the detrimental effects of disease process.Spencer METs consist of series of seven steps taken in order to decrease pain and stiffness in sholder regiegionn.

Conditions

• Adhesive Capsulitis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)	(TENS) is a method of pain relief involving the use of a mild electrical current
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	Muscle Energy Technique	n Spencer's technique, there are seven steps as follows: shoulder extension along with elbow flexion, shoulder flexion with elbow extension, circumduction with compression, circumduction with distraction, shoulder abduction and internal rotation with elbow flexion, shoulder adduction and external rotation with elbow
