Abstract
Adhesive capsulitis is a condition that results in the pain and tightening of the shoulder capsule, greatly limiting ROM for as long as 4 years. In this literature, it was examined whether heat application for frozen shoulder patients before PT treatment would improve the prognosis of ROM. Upon a literature search, the article Effects of Deep and superficial heating in the Management of Frozen Shoulder was chosen. This literature review assesses all aspects of this article to determine its validity and implication to the research question.
