By Hegazy MMA, Alrawaili SM, El Negamy TE and 1 others.
Abstract
Although neural mobilization techniques (NMTs) and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) are well-known therapeutic techniques among physical therapists, evidence regarding the additional benefit of combining these approaches in the management of adhesive capsulitis (AC) remains limited. This study was established to determine the effectiveness of combined NMTs and PNF techniques on pain intensity, functional disability and passive ROM of the shoulder joint in patients with AC.
