The aim of the study is to study the effects of exercise therapy regimes on pain, range of motion and function in patients of frozen shoulder. Both groups were given passive or active assistive ROM and pulley exercises led by physiotherapists at minimum pain level. After exercises and 20 min of TENS, a cold pack was applied in the clinic. Depending on the pain status of the patient, active assistive ROM exercises were given as home program, and cold application was added to the home program in periods of 15 min 3 times a day. Patients were also given nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Scapulothoracic dyskinesis should be assessed, and myofascial trigger points and muscle imbalance should be considered a result of shoulder pain in planning and assessing treatment programs.
