Effects of Gongs Mobilization and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation in Patients With Adhesive Capsulitis

4 mai 2026 mis à jour par: Riphah International University
The randomized controlled trail aims is to evaluate the outcome of Gongs mobilization and PNF in patients with adhesive capsulitis. The significance of this study is to compare Gong's mobilization technique with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) compare their effects on pain, range of motion, and functional disability. The sample size was calculated with G-power. This study would include total 44 female participants aged 40-60 years will be recruited and randomly assigned to two groups. Group A(Gongs mobilization+ conventional therapy)and Group B(PNF+ Conventional therapy). Intervention will be provided for 4 weeks 3 session per week. Primary outcome measures are pain, ROM and functional disability via NPRS, Goniometer and U-SPADI. Outcomes will be reassessed at baseline, after 2nd week, and after 4th week.

Description détaillée

Adhesive capsulitis ,which is also referred as frozen shoulder is described as a progressive and self-limiting condition leading to gradual onset of pain and loss of shoulder Range of motion. It restricts both Active and Passive movements due to adhesions in Glenohumeral(GH) joint capsule. which leads to fibrosis, scarring and contracture of joint capsule. As fibrosis progresses restricting the shoulder normal Range of motion. ultimately impacting person's daily activities and frequently interfering with sleep and making basic activities like combing hair , dressing and overhead activities difficult.

Gong's Mobilization(GM) serves as an effective technique in the treatment of Frozen shoulder, it was introduced by W. Gong, the mainstay of this mobilization is to correct the positional fault of the humeral head that is often medially rotated and dragged forward due to muscular tension of Subscapularis and Pectoralis Major along with the tightness of posterior capsule. Gong mobilization intends to keep the humeral head in its correct position during dynamic motion of the GH joint by keeping the affected scapula in anterior to posterior position and the humeral head in posterior to anterior direction at the same time. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretch is a technique commonly used in clinical environments to enhance both active and passive range of motion (ROM), with the ultimate goal of optimizing motor performance and rehabilitation

Armes et Interventions

Groupe de participants / Bras
Intervention / Traitement
Expérimental: Gongs Mobilization
Gongs Mobilization + conventional Therapy
Comportemental: Gongs Mobilization
Glenohumeral mobilization (GM) will be performed in a side-lying position with the therapist standing on the affected side. An anterior-to-posterior glide will be applied to the humeral head parallel to the joint plane while the opposite hand stabilizes the scapula from posterior to anterior. The patient will perform quick shoulder abduction movements with the elbow extended as the therapist applies Maitland's Grade III-IV oscillatory glides, maintaining slight joint distraction and following the motion through the abduction phase. Each session will include two sets of five repetitions with a five-minute rest between sets, for a total of twelve sessions
Comportemental: Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
The therapist will use proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) techniques specifically employing the hold-relax method followed by the D2 pattern of flexion-extension movement. Each session will last 15 minutes, comprising 10 sets of PNF. Each set will include 5 repetitions, with a 5-second hold and a 2-second rest between repetitions. This protocol will be administered over 12 sessions.
