Brief Summary: Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is often self-limited but can persist for years and may never fully resolve. The most effective treatment for adhesive capsulitis is uncertain till date. Though neural links are being studied on one side and postural alteration too was postulated to cause shoulder pathology. However, the effectiveness of C5-C6 and thoracic spine mobilization with postural correction remains unexplored in the treatment of AC. This study aimed to investigate whether C5-C6 and thoracic spine mobilization with postural correction are more effective than conventional therapy in pain, range of motion(ROM), and disability in patients with AC. The outcome of the study must provide valid information to enhance the prognostic value of adhesive capsulitis.
Detailed Description: Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is often self-limited but can persist for years and may never fully resolve. The most effective treatment for adhesive capsulitis is uncertain till date. Though neurological control of the shoulder girdle muscles is mainly from cervical roots, particularly from C5/C6 roots, there was not sufficient research to associate this link with AC. Evidence confirms that there is an association between posture and shoulder mobility. However, the effectiveness of C5-C6 and thoracic spine mobilization with postural correction remains unexplored in the treatment of AC. We aimed to investigate whether C5-C6 and thoracic spine mobilization with postural correction are more effective than conventional therapy in pain, range of motion(ROM), and disability in patients with AC.

Methods The protocol is written according to the SPIRIT statement to enhance transparency of content and completeness. Two-group, randomized controlled trial with blinded assessors. A total of 66 adults with AC will be randomly assigned to experimental group to receive C5-C6 and thoracic spine mobilization with postural correction sessions (n=33) and the others(n=33) in control group to receive conventional therapy within a period of 3 weeks. Primary outcomes are Shoulder Pain, range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder joint and Disability Index (SPADI) were to be measured at pre, postintervention following 3 weeks and 3 months..
