Not really but in some cases could be effective. In a frozen shoulder the most efficient therapy is the kinisiotherapy and Some TENS electro therapy device.

Frozen shoulder, otherwise known as adhesive capsulitis, is one of those tricky conditions which I have found respond well to treatment, but patience is required. I am a physiotherapist who likes to see quick results, either objectively or subjectively, ideally both!

However as we all know, the pathophysiology of the frozen shoulder often does not lend itself to such expectations and at the outset and it is important to make the patient aware of this fact.
