Robotic arm therapy for frozen shoulder
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a robotic exoskeleton that moves your arm for you or helps you move it, to see if it improves shoulder stiffness and range of motion. It may be a new treatment option for people with frozen shoulder.
