How does the combination of rESWT and EBPT affect pain, range of motion, and functional outcomes in patients with adhesive capsulitis?\n\nResearchers will compare rESWT plus EBPT to a sham rESWT plus EBPT to see if rESWT provides better results for subjects with adhesive capsulitis.\n\nThe study will randomly assign participants to receive either rESWT plus EBPT or sham rESWT plus EBPT over a 6-week intervention period. The primary outcomes will be pain and disability, while secondary outcomes will include shoulder range of motion, psychological distress, and health-related quality of life.
