What it is
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is inflammation and tightening of the shoulder joint capsule, moving through painful, stiff, and thawing phases over many months. It's genuinely frustrating — but the right care at each phase shortens the road and protects your function along the way.
How we treat it
Treatment is matched to your phase: calming pain and protecting sleep early, then progressively restoring range with hands-on therapy and specific mobility work, then rebuilding strength as the shoulder thaws. Where a physician-administered injection could help the painful phase, we'll say so — combined care gets the best results with this diagnosis.
