High energy density pulse electromagnetic field
The treatment coil is positioned over the area of the shoulder that experiences the most pain, and it remains in place for a duration of 9 minutes. The patient is subjected to a high-energy high-PEMF with a frequency of 3 pulses per second during the session.
physiotherapy
Physiotherapy includes a range of activities such as passive and active-assisted shoulder range of motion (ROM) exercises, Pendulum exercises, Codman's exercises, and Cross-body reach exercises. These exercises are conducted under the supervision of a physiotherapist and each training session lasts approximately 30 minutes.
sham High energy density pulse electromagnetic field
The sham treatment coil is positioned over the area of the shoulder where maximum pain is experienced, and it remains in place for a duration of 9 minutes. The parameters are consistent with those used in the experimental group. The key distinction lies in the fact that the energy output is not delivered to the patient.
