Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. It typically develops gradually, limiting the range of motion and making daily activities challenging. Whether caused by an injury, prolonged immobility, or underlying conditions such as diabetes, frozen shoulder can be debilitating. At our clinic, we specialize in non-surgical treatments that focus on relieving pain and restoring mobility in the shoulder.
Comprehensive Diagnosis
To effectively treat frozen shoulder, a thorough diagnosis is essential. We begin by reviewing your medical history and performing a physical examination to assess the range of motion in your shoulder. If necessary, we may recommend imaging tests such as X-rays or MRIs to rule out other conditions and confirm the diagnosis of frozen shoulder.
Non-Surgical Treatments
We offer a range of non-invasive therapies designed to relieve pain, reduce stiffness, and improve shoulder movement, including:
- Physical Therapy: A structured program of stretches and strengthening exercises aimed at restoring flexibility and mobility in the shoulder joint.
- Pain Management: Injections, including corticosteroid injections, to reduce inflammation and provide relief from pain.
- Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to improve joint movement and decrease stiffness.
- Heat and Cold Therapy: Application of heat or cold to alleviate pain, reduce swelling, and improve joint function.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Each treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs, focusing on your specific symptoms and progress. Our goal is to help you regain full shoulder function without the need for surgery, enabling you to return to your normal activities with ease.
