Frozen Shoulder

Committed to excellence. Committed to your freedom of movement and comfort.

Introduction

Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by stiffness, pain, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. This condition typically develops gradually and can significantly impact daily activities and overall quality of life. At Azure Aesthetics and Physiocare, we offer specialized assessments to diagnose frozen shoulder and identify the stage of the condition. Our goal is to provide targeted treatments that help reduce pain, improve shoulder mobility, and restore function.

Frozen shoulder can develop due to various factors, including prolonged immobilization of the shoulder, injury, or underlying health conditions like diabetes. Symptoms include persistent shoulder pain, stiffness, and difficulty with movements such as lifting the arm or reaching overhead. Our physiotherapists conduct comprehensive evaluations to understand the severity of your condition and create a personalized treatment plan. We use a combination of manual therapy, stretching exercises, and modalities to address symptoms and enhance shoulder function.

Effective management of frozen shoulder involves a multi-pronged approach to alleviate pain and restore movement. Our physiotherapy services include gentle stretching exercises to improve range of motion, manual therapy to release joint restrictions, and modalities such as heat or cold therapy to manage pain and inflammation. We also provide education on shoulder positioning and self-care strategies to support ongoing recovery. By focusing on both immediate relief and long-term recovery, we aim to help you regain full shoulder function and return to your daily activities.
