Conditions We Treat

Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) involves a significant loss of joint range of motion in all directions, typically following minor trauma or a period of shoulder immobility.

Treatment supports comfort and movement through each stage of recovery.

The Three Stages

Stage 01

Freezing (6–36 weeks)

Pain gradually increases and the shoulder loses its normal range of motion.

Stage 02

Frozen (4–6 months)

Painful symptoms may ease but stiffness persists; simple tasks like dressing become difficult.

Stage 03

Thawing (6 months–2 years)

Shoulder motion slowly improves toward normal or near-normal strength.
