ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how different treatments can help people with frozen shoulder, a condition that causes pain and limits movement in the shoulder. The main goal is to see which treatment—Shoulder Symptom Modification Procedure (SSMP), Mobilization with Movement (MWM), or a sham (fake) treatment—works best to reduce pain and improve shoulder function. The trial is currently looking for participants aged 40 to 65 who have been diagnosed with this condition and have difficulty moving their shoulder.

To be eligible for the trial, participants need to have a specific diagnosis of frozen shoulder and show significant pain and limited movement. Those with a history of shoulder dislocation, fractures, cancer, or heart disease cannot join the study. If you participate, you will receive one of the treatments and will be monitored to see how well it helps with your shoulder symptoms. Your involvement could contribute to finding better ways to manage this frustrating condition.
