Understanding Frozen Shoulder: What You Need to Know
Have you heard of frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis? This condition affects the shoulder joint, causing stiffness and pain due to changes within the joint itself. Factors like age (typically between 40-50), gender (more common in females), diabetes, or recent upper extremity surgery can increase your risk.
How Can We Help Speed Up Your Recovery?
At The Art of Healing and Wandsworth Osteo Clinic, we focus on holistic treatments to support your healing journey. While direct treatment of the shoulder may be initially challenging due to pain, we start by ensuring optimal movement in surrounding joints like the neck, upper spine, shoulder blades, and elbow.
Additionally, we address the surrounding muscles that tend to contract and tighten during frozen shoulder. Relaxing these muscles helps alleviate pain and enables us to work more effectively on the shoulder joint itself.
If you're curious to learn more about frozen shoulder and how osteopathic care can help, reach out to our team at info@theartofhealing.uk or call 0203 146 6755. We're here to answer your questions and schedule your appointment.
At the Art of Healing and Wandsworth Osteo Clinic we offer same-day, guaranteed hands-on treatment to bring you relief. We know our patients are busy, so we’re open 7 days a week till late!
