Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
A simple random number table will randomly divide participants into two groups. The study group (20 participants) will be given 15 sessions of respiratory exercises in addition to the 15 sessions of physiotherapy provided routinely for treatment. The control group (20 participants) will receive 15 sessions of physiotherapy services in addition to the routine 15 sessions of the physiotherapy department.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention group
Respiratory exercises will be applied in addition to conventional treatment for frozen shoulder patients.
Breathing Exercises
During the exercise sessions, participants will be seated in a chair. In the first five and last five minutes of the session, they will be instructed to focus on their breathing and the sensations produced in the body while sitting comfortably in a relaxed position with all joints in the chairs with their eyes closed. After the initial 5 minutes of relaxed breathing, participants will be instructed to perform diaphragmatic and costal breathing for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes of diaphragmatic breathing, the patient will be rested for 1 minute and then 5 minutes of costal breathing will be performed. While doing coastal breathing, patients will be asked to place their hands on their costas, take a deep breath and inflate the bottom of their hands; then they will be asked to exhale the breath they take in a longer (1:2) time.
Conventional treatment
Ultrasound, hotpack and TENS will be applied to both control and study groups as physical therapy modality. Then 15 sessions of Codman exercises, normal range of motion exercises and stretching exercises will be applied to both groups.
Control Group
For frozen shoulder patients, 15 conventional treatment programs will be applied.
Conventional treatment
Ultrasound, hotpack and TENS will be applied to both control and study groups as physical therapy modality. Then 15 sessions of Codman exercises, normal range of motion exercises and stretching exercises will be applied to both groups.
