Methods.
total of 40 patients diagnosed with idiopathic shoulder adhesive capsulitis were recruited and randomly allocated into two groups.

Variables.
Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI), VAS and shoulder ROM (external rotation and abduction) were variables of the study.
These were recorded before and after the session of the training.
Total duration of the study was four weeks.
Result.
Statistical analysis of the data revealed that within-group comparison both groups showed significant improvement for all the parameters, whereas between-group comparison revealed higher improvement in Group A compared to the Group B.
Conclusion.
The study confirmed that addition of the Maitland mobilization technique with the combination of exercises have proved their efficacy in relieving pain and improving R.O.M.
