What this study is testing

What it's testing
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the integrity of somatosensory processing with transcranial magnetique stimulation (TMS) and corticospinal excitability of the affected shoulder in individuals with adhesive capsulitis versus healthy controls. The secondary objective is to compare the clinical and neurophysiological effects of an intervention using tendon vibration (VIB) to induced kinesthetic illusions.
