Frozen shoulder is a condition where there is inflammation, pain, adhesions, atrophy and shortening the joint capsule of the shoulder joint, causing limitations. Attacks are usually unilateral, occurring more among women than men and it is more common in the age of 45-60 years. Frozen shoulder can affect the shoulder joint stiffness and functional inhibition of shoulder motion. The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of Hold relax technique to increase the distance of abducted motion of the frozen shoulder. This study was a quasy experiment with pretest-post test design. As many as 10 research subjects who experience frozen shoulder with limitation of motion of joint shoulder abduction who came for treatment to Physiotherapy Clinic of Ratulangi Medical Center from February to may 2014. The results showed a significant difference before and after administration of the hold relax technique with an average obtained by the difference value ROM of 10.80 + 3.150 with test results Wilcoxon p = 0.005. Conclusions: There was an addition of the shoulder joint abduction range of motion before and after the application of Hold-relax technique on frozen shoulder, so it is expected this technique can be used to overcome frozen shoulder
