Study Overview
Brief Summary
My research compares the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy and laser therapy in patients with idiopathic frozen shoulder. The study aims to evaluate their impact on pain reduction, shoulder range of motion, and functional improvement over a defined treatment period. By comparing these two commonly used physiotherapy modalities, the research seeks to identify which intervention provides better clinical outcomes and can guide evidence based treatment decisions for managing frozen shoulder.
