Effectiveness of the Spencer technique on pain, disability and range of motion in patients with frozen shoulder: A systematic review and meta-analysis with meta-regression of randomized controlled trials (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov)

• Systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs on Spencer technique for frozen shoulder.
• Significant improvements in pain, function, and mobility.
• Meta-regression identifies possible moderators like treatment duration.

"This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of the Spencer technique, a manual therapy, for frozen shoulder. Analyzing randomized controlled trials, it found significant improvements in pain, disability, and range of motion. Meta-regression identified potential moderators. The findings support the Spencer technique as a useful adjunct in shoulder rehabilitation."
