Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Group A: Spencer Technique   Spencer technique along with conventional treatment.Patient will be positioned in side lying with the shoulder to be treated uppermost, the therapist stood in front of the patient stabilizing the superior aspect of the shoulder girdle, the fixed shoulder girdle provided a resistant structure against which to stretch the soft tissues around the glenohumeral articulation as the arm will be used as a long lever. The therapist then supports the wrist and forearm of the patient and does passive, smooth, rhythmic back and forth motion of arm and is carried to the extreme limit permitted by the contracted muscles, ligaments and the capsule of the shoulder. Total duration: 4 weeks for thrice a week.  
Comparator Agent  Group B: Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)  IASTM is given along with conventional treatment Total duration: 4 weeks for thrice a week. 
Comparator Agent  Group C: Conventional   conventional treatment which includes hot packs, capsular stretching exercises and Codman’s pendular exercises. Total duration: 4 weeks for thrice a week. 
Comparator Agent  Group D: Combination of Interventions  combination of IASTM and Spencer technique with conventional treatment. Total duration: 4 weeks for thrice a week.
