Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of stretching and strengthening exercises on pain, functional status, range of motion and psychosocial factors in patients with frozen shoulder.
Detailed Description:
Frozen shoulder is a common disorder characterized by spontaneous shoulder pain, progressive inflammation and fibrosis of the joint capsule and loss of both active and passive glenohumeral range of motion.Exercise reduces pain, increases range of motion and function in patients with frozen shoulder. When investigators examine the literature, stretching and strengthening exercises are frequently encountered in the content of multimodal exercise programs applied clinically and at home in frozen shoulder. However, they have not been compared in isolation. Stretching is known to increase flexibility, while strengthening is often used to increase strength capacity and hypertrophy.Both exercise methods produce mechanical tension, known as a factor that stimulates anabolic metabolism and increases protein synthesis.Therefore, the aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of stretching and strengthening exercises on pain, functional status, range of motion and psychosocial factors in patients with frozen shoulder.According to the power analysis result, 56 patients will be randomized into two groups (Group 1 =28, Group 2=28). The treatment will last for a total of 6 weeks and the follow-up period will be 6 weeks. Group 1 will be included in the program consisting of stretching exercises only. Patients will receive a 6-week rehabilitation program consisting of 18 sessions of stretching exercises (3 times a week) under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Group 2 will be included in the program consisting of strengthening exercises only. Patients will receive a 6-week rehabilitation program consisting of 18 sessions of strengthening exercises (3 times per week) under the supervision of a physiotherapist. The primary outcomes are the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire (Quick DASH) and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), while the secondary outcomes are the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Evaluation (ASES), Shoulder range of motion, Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BFI-SF) and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS).
