AC), often referred to as frozen shoulder is characterized by initially painful and later progressively restricted active and passive glenohumeral joint range of motion with spontaneous complete or near complete recovery over varied period of time. For the treatment of adhesive capsulitis, patient education is essential in helping to reduce frustration and encourage compliance. It is important to emphasise that although full range of motion may never be recovered, the condition will spontaneously resolve and stiffness will greatly reduce with time. It is also helpful to give quality instructions to the patient and create an appropriate home exercise program that is easy to comply with as daily exercise is critical in relieving symptoms.
