You Are Developing an Exercise Program for a Patient Who

You are developing an exercise program for a patient who has adhesive capsulitis of the right shoulder.You have determined that the signs and symptoms identified during your examination are consistent with stage 2,the "freezing" stage,of this disorder.In addition to maintaining mobility of joints distal to the shoulder,which of the following interventions for the shoulder is most appropriate at this time?

A) Low-intensity PRE,mobilization with movement techniques,and manual stretching of the shoulder and scapular stabilization exercises with progressive weight bearing through the upper extremity.
B) Grade III joint-mobilization techniques,self-stretching,and strengthening exercises.
C) Gentle weight bearing on the involved upper extremity to develop scapular control and active ROM of the shoulder (e.g. ,wand and wall-climbing exercises) .
D) Grade I and II joint distraction and gliding techniques,pendulum exercises,passive or active-assistive ROM within pain-free ranges,and muscle-setting exercises for shoulder musculature.
