Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of two different exercise programs in patients with frozen shoulders.

Detailed Description

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

After being informed about the study, all patients giving written informed and meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized a double-blind manner in a 1:1 (participant and investigator) to graded motor imagery or exercise group.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Graded Motor İmagery

Graded Motor İmagery (GMI) group will receive a treatment protocol consisting of Graded Motor Imagery, cold therapy, traditional exercises and home exercises.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Graded Motor Imagery

Intervention Type OTHER

Graded Motor Imagery program will be performed two times a week for six consecutive weeks and will include the following three steps: laterality training, imagined movements, and mirror therapy.

1. Right-left discrimination training (lateralization training)
2. Imagination of hand movements (motor imagery):
3. Mirror therapy Treatments including traditional physiotherapy approaches; joint mobilizations, stretching, scapula focused exercises etc.

Exercise

Exercise group will receive training involves mobilizations, stretching, specific exercises for the frozen shoulder.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Exercise

Intervention Type OTHER
