Frozen Shoulder: how we help
Frozen shoulder is a common problem where the shoulder slowly becomes stiff and painful. Many people first notice it while reaching for a seatbelt, hooking a blouse or sari, or lifting a bag onto a high shelf. It usually builds up over months. It is more common in people aged 40 to 60, and in people who have diabetes.
How we help
- A careful check of how far your shoulder can move and what brings on the pain
- Hands-on manual therapy to gently ease stiffness and help the joint move more freely
- A gentle home exercise routine, set by your physiotherapist, that you can do between visits
- Where suitable, options like Class IV Laser, TECAR therapy or dry needling to help manage pain, as your physiotherapist decides
What to expect
Your first visit begins with a detailed check of your shoulder movement, strength and pain pattern. We explain what is happening in plain language and build a plan that fits your daily routine, so you know what to do and why at each step.
Common questions
Why is my shoulder so stiff and painful?
Frozen shoulder often passes through stages, and stiffness can build up slowly. Your physiotherapist will assess your shoulder and explain what is going on in simple terms.
I have diabetes. Does that change anything?
Frozen shoulder is more common in people with diabetes, and it can sometimes take a little longer to settle. Your physiotherapist will keep this in mind while planning your care.
Can physiotherapy help without surgery?
For many people, physiotherapy is a helpful first step to ease pain and improve movement. Your physiotherapist will guide you and let you know if anything needs further medical review.
