Between 2% and 3% of the general population suffer from adhesiveshoulder capsulitis, which most frequently develops between the ages of 40-65 years. The region graduallythickens, leading to shoulder stiffness and increase in pain.Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of Maitland mobilization and Muscle energy technique in patients withperiarthritis shoulder using SPADI and NPRS.Materials and Methods: Subjects were randomly allocated into two groups. Maitland mobilization group (n =33) and Muscle Energy Technique group (n = 33). The subjects were assessed using SPADI and NPRS for pre andpost-test values. The one group treated with Maitland mobilization (grade 1 and 2) were given to the patientsalong with some exercises. The other group were treated with muscle energy technique along with some exercises.These interventions were given for 4 weeks.The entire process was conducted from November 2022 to April 2023.Result: There was a significant improvement from pre-treatment levels in pain and ROM in Maitland mobilizationgroup compared to muscle energy group.Conclusion: Hence the study concludes that there is a more significant increase in ROM and SPADI score, and asignificant decrease in pain on NPRS by Maitland mobilization as compared with Muscle energy technique
