Abstract

Background and Objectives: Adhesive capsulitis(AC) is a condition commonly affecting the shoulder with 2% prevalence, causing insidious pain and restriction of active as well as passive gleno-humeral movement. This study compares the effectiveness of Kaltenborn mobilization versus Mulligan’s MWM technique for AC of the shoulder.Method: 56 participants were randomly allocated in Group M and Group K for the shoulder. SPADI and shoulder ROM were used as outcome measures. These were recorded at baseline and at the end of 2 weeks post treatment. Results: Statistically significant (p<0.05) improvements were found in Group K with respect to SPADI scores, while the same was observed in ROM although not statistically significant.Conclusion: Pain and disability along with ROM improved in both groups.
