Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the investigator's study is to compare the efficacy of manual therapy and exercise practices compared to exercise practice in patients with Glenohumeral Arthritis. Thirty volunteer patients will include into the study.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients will randomly divide into two groups. A common exercise program was applied to both groups during 15 sessions. Manual therapy techniques will apply to the manual therapy group in addition to exercise practices. Patients will evaluate in terms of functional status, pain, range of motion, muscle strength and health-related quality before and after 5 weeks of treatment. Also, patient's satisfaction from treatment will evaluate at the 5th week of the treatment. DASH and ASES forms for functional status, VAS for pain, digital goniometer for range of motion, manual muscle test for muscle strength, SF-12 for health-related quality of life, and Global Rating of Change (GRC) Scale for patient satisfaction will be used as evaluation criteria.
