Brief Summary:
Adhesive capsulitis is one of the most common problems of the upper limb Adhesive capsulitis AC and frozen shoulder syndrome FSS are two terms that have been used to describe a painful and stiff shoulder
Conservative treatment includes transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation TENS Ultrasound LASER Range of Motion stretching and strengthening exercises patient education and home exercises Manual therapy includes mobilization Spencers Muscle Energy Technique and Mobilization With Movement

Detailed Description:
The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons defines this condition as A condition of varying severity characterized by the gradual development of global limitation of active and passive shoulder motion where radiographic findings other than osteopenia are absent Patients with frozen shoulder typically experience insidious shoulder stiffness severe pain that usually worsens at night and near-complete loss of passive and active external rotation of the shoulder
Although spencers Muscle Energy Technique is a very effective technique still it was rarely used It is a standardized series of steps of shoulder treatments with broad application in diagnosis treatment and prognosis developed by Spencer in 1961 and is a well-known osteopathic manipulative technique that focuses on mobilization of the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joints It is an articulatory technique in which passive smooth rhythmic motion of the shoulder joint is done by the therapist to stretch contracted muscles ligaments and capsule Most of the force is applied at the end range of motion This technique increases pain-free Range of Motion by stretching the tissues enhancing lymphatic flow and stimulating increased joint circulation
On the other hand post-facilitation stretch PFS is a muscle energy technique developed by DrVladimir Janda to lengthen chronically shortened muscles that involves a maximal contraction of the muscle at mid-range with a rapid movement to maximal length followed by a 20-second static stretch This technique is more aggressive than Post Isometric Relaxation and based on the concept of autogenic inhibition
