Fascial treatment for frozen shoulder
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a manual therapy technique for people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). It aims to see if treating the fascia—the connective tissue around muscles—can improve shoulder movement and reduce pain.

This study tests if specific exercises can help people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) move their shoulder better and feel less pain. It is for those who have not had shoulder surgery or other conditions like diabetes.
This study tests whether adding a specific muscle-release technique to shoulder exercises helps reduce pain and improve movement in frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). Frozen shoulder causes stiffness and pain that limits arm movement; this trial explores whether combining two physical therapy methods works better than standard care.
This trial studies whether a vibration device applied to the shoulder can reduce pain and improve range of motion in people with frozen shoulder (also called adhesive capsulitis). If you fit the specific shoulder and symptom pattern, it may be an option to consider alongside standard care.
This study compares two ways to treat early frozen shoulder (also called adhesive capsulitis): manual release by a therapist versus a home exercise program. It is for people who have had symptoms for 3 months or less and have not had shoulder surgery before.
This study compares two types of gentle, hands-on physical therapy (Mulligan mobilization with or without the Niel Asher technique) for treating frozen shoulder. It aims to find which approach reduces pain and improves movement better.
This trial tests a new AI-assisted ultrasound therapy for frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). It aims to see if this non-invasive treatment can help improve shoulder stiffness and movement without the need for surgery or injections.
