The aim of this study was to compare between the effects of mobilization versus kinesio taping on frozen shoulder in diabetic patient. Forty diabetic patients (16 men and 24 women) were selected from outpatient clinic of physical therapy department who referred from orthopedic clinic of Basyon El Markarzy Hospital, El Gharbia, their age ranged between 45 to 55 years. The patients were assigned into two equal groups in number :- group (A) consisted of 20 patients (9 men,11women) , who received kinesio taping ,one time per week for 6 weeks and group (B) consisted of 20 patients (8 men,12 women) ,who received mulligan and midlands mobilization technique, three times a week, for 6 weeks. Range of motion of shoulder was measured at the beginning and after the treatment program for both groups. The results of this study revealed a highly statistical significant improvement in all variables in group (B) , flexion of shoulder (61.36% ) ,abduction(5o.82%) ,internal rotation(18.66%) ,external rotation(23.89) ,extension(66.07%) and increase in variables in group (A) ,flexion shoulder(13.31%) ,abduction(11.63%) ,internal rotation(5.71%) , external rotation(4.78) ,extension(20.36%) .In group(B) ,flexion improved (55.35%) in men and (65.78% ) in women, abduction improved (47.61%) in men and (52.97%) in women, external rotation improved ( 19.12%) in men and (27.52%) in women, internal rotation improved (9.76%) in men and (25.47%) in women and extension improved (73.47%) in men and ( 60.32%) in women . In group (A) ,flexion improved( 14.34%) in men and ( 12.53% ) in women, abduction improved (14.52%) in men and (9.49%) in women, external rotation improved (8.34%) in men and( 2.50%) in women, internal rotation improved ( 6.28%) in men and (5.26%) in women and extension improved (16.83%) in men and( 25% ) in women. It can be concluded that mobilization produces a significant improvement for patients with diabetic frozen shoulder more the kinesio taping
