UKFROST was a multi-centre randomized clinical trial comparing 3 parallel groups arms of frozen shoulder patients treated 1 under anaesthesia steroid injection 2 under anaesthesia arthoscopy and 3 physiotherapy steriod injectionThe large-scale study proves physiotherapy program beneficial to frozen shoulder patients and the effectiveness might further improve by introducing East-Meets-West component - Chinese Medicine
