Previous research has indicated a significant association between menopause and the increased risk of developing adhesive capsulitis.\n\nDespite the known benefits of capacitive resistive energy transfer therapy in managing musculoskeletal disorders, its specific effectiveness in treating adhesive capsulitis remains underexplored. Existing studies have not focused on postmenopausal women, a population particularly vulnerable to this condition.\n\nMoreover, previous studies have often been limited by short intervention durations, providing only preliminary insights without conclusive evidence. This highlights the need for further research to evaluate the long-term effects of capacitive resistive energy transfer therapy in this population. Therefore, this study aims to fill a gap in the literature by providing baseline data on the effectiveness, safety, and potential complications of capacitive resistive energy transfer therapy in postmenopausal women with frozen shoulder. The findings may also contribute to the development of more targeted and effective treatment protocols for this specific group.",[46,52],{"label":47,"type":48,"description":49,"interventionNames":50},"Conventional physical therapy group","ACTIVE_COMPARATOR","The participants will receive conventional physical therapy only three times per week for a total duration of six weeks.",[51],"Other: Conventional physical therapy",{"label":53,"type":54,"description":55,"interventionNames":56},"conventional physical therapy plus Capacitive Resistive Energy Transfer (TECAR) therapy","EXPERIMENTAL","The participants will receive conventional physical therapy program, in addition to Capacitive Resistive Energy Transfer (TECAR) therapy, three times per week for a total duration of six weeks.",[51,57],"Device: Capacitive Resistive Energy Transfer (TECAR) therapy",[59,63],{"type":6,"name":60,"description":61,"armGroupLabels":62,"otherNames":35},"Conventional physical therapy","The treatment will involve stretching exercises for the levator scapulae, upper trapezius, pectoralis minor, and pectoralis major muscles.

The affected shoulder was prepared with a conductive gel to enhance energy transfer. During the session, the capacitive electrode was initially applied, targeting the superficial muscles and tendons around the shoulder joint using circular or linear movements for 5 min. Following this, the resistive electrode was employed to target deeper structures, focusing on the joint capsule and rotator cuff muscles for 10 min.
