Inclusion criteria

  • Volunteers aged 40-65 years,
  • Diagnosed with unilateral Frozen Shoulder, Frozen Shoulder stage 2-3,
  • Pain lasting more than 3 months,
  • No mental or cognitive impairment

Primary outcomes

  1. Sociodemographic Form

    Time frame: 8 week

    Sociodemographic information of the patients included in the study, such as age, gender, height, weight, BMI, educational status, dominant side, comorbid status, and clinical information such as affected side, pain intensity, and pain duration were collected in a case report form by face-to-face interview

  2. Balance Function

    Time frame: 8 week

    Balance function was measured with the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG). The TUG is a short, simple, and reliable test used to assess balance. It shows that people who complete the test in less than 20 seconds are independent in transfers, while people who complete the test in 30 seconds or more are more dependent in activities of daily living.

  3. Static and Dynamic Postural Balance

    Time frame: 8 week

    Biodex Balance System was used for objective assessment of static and dynamic postural balance. A high balance score indicates poor balance performance.

  4. Pain Intensity

    Time frame: 8 week

    The pain intensity of the patients was measured using the Visual Analogue Scale. The pain intensity score ranges from 0 to 10. An increase in the score indicates an increase in pain; a decrease in the score indicates a decrease in pain.
