ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Adhesive capsulitis is condition characterised by progressive loss of both active and passive range of motion with potential of spontaneous resolution in 3 years. It is common in age group of 40- 65 years. Many studies have shown the effectiveness of kinesiotaping on adhesive capsulitis alone but there is a lack of studies that proves that if kinesiotaping along with mobilization will show any early recovery in patients with adhesive capsulitis. Thus there is need to see there is any effect of kinesiotaping along with kaltenborn mobilization in subacute adhesive capsulitis patients . AIM: Aim of the study is to analyse the effectiveness of kinesiotaping along with kaltenborn mobilization in patients with subacute adhesive capsulitis. OBJECTIVE: This study is to analyse the effectiveness of kinesiotaping along with kaltenborn mobilization in patients with subacute adhesive capsulitis. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A total number of 15 subjects were age group between 40- 65 years with subacute adhesive capsulitis are randomly selected for this study. The subjects of this group are given treatment for a period of 4 weeks. Before and after the treatment the subjects with pain and disability were measured using Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) for taking pre-test and post-test values respectively. The t value is calculated by the pre-test and post-test values of SPADI. RESULT: By the values of statistical analysis of the study show that kinesiotaping along with kaltenborn mobilization is effective for disability and relief in subacute adhesive capsulitis of shoulder joint. KEYWORDS: Sub-acute adhesive capsulitis, kinesiotaping, kaltenborn mobilization, Shoulder Pain and Disability Index.
