Abstract	Background: Adhesive capsulitis or frozen shoulder is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder that presents with pain and limited shoulder movement. Physiotherapy with joint mobilization procedures is often used to enhance outcomes. Manual therapy procedure Maitland mobilization has been found with beneficial effects on increasing mobility of the shoulder and for pain reduction. Objective: To establish a comparison of the efficacy of Maitland mobilization with conventional physiotherapy versus conventional physiotherapy in alleviating pain and disability among frozen shoulder patients. Methods: Randomized controlled trial on participants aged between 40-70 years old with frozen shoulder diagnosis for a period not less than three months. The participants were divided randomly into two groups: an experimental group that received Maitland mobilization in combination with standard physiotherapy, and a control group that had only standard physiotherapy. Both groups were subjected to pre- and post-intervention evaluation based on the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) and Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Data were statistically analyzed to find the significance of improvement in the within and between groups. Results: There were significant improvements in shoulder function and pain for both groups. The group undergoing Maitland mobilization, however, had greater decreases in SPADI and NPRS scores than the control group, suggesting better clinical outcomes. Conclusion: The addition of Maitland mobilization to standard physiotherapy is more beneficial in the treatment of frozen shoulder than standard physiotherapy alone. Manual joint mobilization exercises added to treatment protocols can improve patient recovery and functional outcomes.
