| Abstract | ||
| Background: This study was designed to compare between the effect of Axillary Phonophoresis and Post isometric facilitation on decreasing pain intensity level, increasing shoulder range of motion (ROM), improving pressure pain threshold (PPT), improving the Physical function, and functional activities in patients with Adhesive Capsulitis. Methods: pre and post randomized clinical designed on forty-five subjects with Adhesive Capsulitis. They divided randomly into three equal groups. Group "A" received axillary diclophenac phonophoresis in addition to traditional physiotherapy. Group B received post isometric facilitation and traditional physiotherapy. While group "C" (control group) received only conventional treatment. The pain intensity level, pressure pain threshold, shoulder range of motion, and the physical functional were measured before and after completion of treatment. Results: Statistical analysis (t-test) showed that there was a significant difference at all groups. But group A was significantly changed at post treatment when compared with pretreatment as (p<0.05). Conclusion: AP is more effective than PIF on pain intensity level, functional activity and Shoulder ROM in Adhesive Capsulitis | ||
