Abstract

Adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder is a common condition in patients with Parkinson’s disease. Muscle rigidity, bradykinesia, and abnormal posture in Parkinson’s disease are predisposing factors for its development. Adhesive
capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder, significantly impacts quality of life and independence in activities of daily living, making early recognition and timely rehabilitation essential.

Keywords
