What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this randomized controlled study is to investigate the effects of a combined rehabilitation program consisting of Mulligan Mobilization with Movement (MWM), Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE), and core stabilization exercises in individuals with adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder). The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does the combination of Mulligan mobilization, Pain Neuroscience Education, and core stabilization exercises reduce pain in individuals with adhesive capsulitis? Does this combined intervention improve shoulder range of motion, shoulder function, quality of life, scapular dyskinesis, and pain catastrophizing compared with conventional physical therapy? Participants diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The intervention group will receive Mulligan mobilization, Pain Neuroscience Education, and core
