Abstract

Background: PA Shoulder is considered to be a self-limiting condition with symptoms lasting from few months to two years. Lack of capsular flexibility is one of the most important pathologic mechanisms that result in large mobility deficits. Consequently, restoration of GH motion is important clinical practice for patients with PA shoulder because most of the daily activities are primarily depends on shoulder. As a result, the most recent advanced techniques are required to treat the patient with PA shoulder[5]. Objective: The study objective was to compare the effectiveness of Angular joint mobilization versus Three directional manual capsular stretching exercise on pain, Range of motion and functional disability in patient with periarthritis shoulder.

Methods: For this study, 40 patients diagnosed with PA shoulder from the outpatient department of physiotherapy, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Research Institute (MGMCRI) were selected by convenient method based on selection criteria and equally divided into 2 groups. Group A patients were treated with AJM. Group B patients were treated with manual capsular stretching for the tightened anterior, inferior and posterior capsules of the shoulder. Both techniques were given for a period of 20 minutes per session, 3 alternative days a week for 3 weeks, a total of nine sessions. And outcome measure tools used for this study were the NPRS, goniometry, New Oxford Shoulder Score and Hand Behind Back Test to collect data for this study.

Results: The result of the analysis shows that there was a significant improvement in pain, ROM, functional disability and HBB inĀ  Both techniques P of 0.001.

Conclusion: The study concluded that the Angular joint mobilization is more effective in reducing pain, increasing range of motion and improving function in patients with periarthritis shoulder.
