Frozen Shoulder
Description
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes pain and limited mobility in the shoulder joint. It occurs when the capsule of connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint becomes thickened and inflamed, which can lead to the formation of adhesions and a reduction in the joint's range of motion. While the exact cause of frozen shoulder is unknown, it is often associated with injury or trauma to the shoulder, prolonged immobilization, or certain medical conditions such as diabetes. Symptoms of frozen shoulder include pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving the affected shoulder. Although it can be a long-term condition, most people experience an improvement in symptoms within 1 to 3 years with proper treatment. Massage therapy can be an effective treatment for improving shoulder range of motion by reducing inflammation and pain, as well as loosening scar tissue and adhesions. This can help to increase blood flow to the affected area, which promotes healing and reduces inflammation. Wondering what service option is the best for frozen shoulder?
