Chiropractor on Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder or Adhesive capsulitis refers to the shoulder joints and the inability to move that shoulder joint which literally gets stuck. This means that the movement of the arm is restricted.
Frozen Shoulder can be divided into three phases. The initial phase is recognised by an onset of pain localised to the shoulder, which then gradually moves onto the second phase where there is a build up of scar tissue around and inside the joint which reduces the physical movement of the shoulder (this is known as the freezing stage) . The final stage is the 'defrosting phase' when the shoulder becomes mobile again. Naturally this process takes between 6 months and 18 months, although full motion may never come back into the shoulder.
A chiropractor can improve the mobility in the joint by loosening the muscles locally in the shoulder, the neck and the thoracic area.
