Abstract :The aim of this review was to investigate studies using Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(IASTM);, to determine the effects of IASTM on shoulder mobility in frozen shoulder. Literature search was carried out on 21 March 2022 using PUBMED, Pedro, SCOPUS, Web of Science and Scholar databases. Appropriate clinical studies were identified from the above databases investigating the effects of IASTM on shoulder range of motion insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ROM); in frozen shoulder and a narrative review was performed. Despite the very limited data on IASTM, which has just begun to increase in use in frozen shoulder, IASTM seems promising for ROM increase. Further studies with higher quality and larger samples are needed to confirm this view and recommend the appropriate IASTM technique for frozen shoulder.
