Introduction: Adhesive capsulitis, sometimes referred to as frozen shoulder. Adhesive capsulitis is associated with pain, reduced range of motion and functional disability in shoulder.It is a condition with unknown etiology that causes discomfort and reduces both active and passive range of motion (ROM). Adhesive capsulitis is divided into three stages-1)Painful Phase (Freezing) 2) Stiffening Phase (Frozen) 3)Thawing Phase .Scapulothoracic exercises- Exercises for the scapulothoracic region that involve rotation, elevation, depression, protrusion, retraction, and circumduction are crucial for maintaining the shoulder's normal functioning. Scapulothoracic strengthening exercises restore external rotation and scapular protraction, while stretching activities restore the length of constricted musclesVirtual reality therapy- Through the use of real input and adaptive capacity at changing intensities, virtual reality is a motivating technique for obtaining therapeutic outcomes. With the use of VR games, a variety of shoulder motions, including shoulder external rotation, abduction, and flexion, can be improved. Method: -: 48 subjects who fulfilled selection criteria were included .48 subjects were divided into 2 groups 24 in each group .Group A consists of 24 patients which were treated with phonophoresis ,maitland mobilization and Scapulothoracic exercise and Group B consisting 24 patients were treated with phonophoresis, maitland mobilization and Virtual reality therapy. Treatment duration was 6 days for 4 weeks. Outcome Measures: NPRS for pain ,universal goniometer measurements for Range Of Motion and DASH scale for functional disability were measured before and after the treatment, Result:Stastical analysis was done by using Shapiro-Wilk test Statistical analysis between groups was done by using independent t test.And the statistical analysis between pre and post interventions was done by paired t test The statistical analysis of pre and post intervention data shows there is significant effect on adhesive capsulitis Grade-2 patients by both the group A and group B but group B shows more effect than group A Conclusion: The present study concludes that both group ,group A scapulothoracic exercises and group B virtual reality therapy shows significant improvement in adhesive capsulitis grade-2 patients,but group B (virtual reality therapy) shows more effect than group A (scapulothoracic exercises). Keywords: Adhesive capsulitis grade-2,NPRS ,DASH, scapulothoracic exercises, virtual reality.
