Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Has signed the consent form
* Patient has a painful, or initially painful but stable frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): stiffening characterized by a passive loss of amplitude on three planes. This loss of amplitude is greater than or equal to 50% of controlateral amplitude when the controlateral shoulder is considered as normal. Otherwise, the loss of amplitude is greater than or equal to 50% of normal anatomical values.
* Radiography confirms the integrity of the glenohumeral interspace.
Exclusion Criteria
* The patient is taking a treatment that may interfere with the study (eg corticoids, pain killers, chemotherapy)
* Contra-indication for physical therapy
* Coagulopathy
* Advanced diabetes mellitus, with neurological or joint complications
* Contra indication for the experimental treatment
* Pregnant or nursing women
* Patient's mental state prevents him/her from understanding the nature of the study, its objectives and potential consequences.
* Patient under guardianship
* Patient is in an exclusion period determined by a previous study
* Patient not able to follow protocol constraints or timetable
* Medical history of local infection, polyarthritis or neuropathy that might explain the shoulder pain.
* Absence of radiculopathy of cervical origin, of rotator cuff tears or evolving shoulder tendinopathy, of severe omarthrose
