Our Frozen Shoulder Treatment Center
At The Master Physiotherapy Clinic, we understand the challenges that come with a frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis. This condition can significantly limit your ability to move your shoulder freely, causing pain and stiffness that can interfere with daily activities.
Understanding Frozen Shoulder:
Frozen shoulder is a condition characterized by stiffness, pain, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. It occurs when the tissues surrounding the shoulder joint become thickened and inflamed, leading to the formation of adhesions or scar tissue that restrict movement. The exact cause of frozen shoulder is not always clear, but it can develop after periods of immobilization, injury, surgery, or as a result of certain medical conditions such as diabetes or thyroid disorders.
Our Approach to Treatment
At The Master Physiotherapy Clinic, we take a comprehensive and personalized approach to treating frozen shoulder. Our experienced healthcare professionals will conduct a thorough evaluation, including a physical examination and possibly diagnostic imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and severity of your condition.
Based on your individual needs and diagnosis, we will create a customized treatment plan designed to alleviate your symptoms and improve shoulder function. Our treatment options may include:
Physical Therapy:
Our skilled physical therapists will develop a tailored exercise program to improve shoulder mobility, strengthen the muscles surrounding the joint, and reduce pain. These exercises may include stretching, range of motion exercises, and strengthening exercises.
Pain Management:
We offer various pain relief options, including medication management, corticosteroid injections, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), to help alleviate discomfort associated with frozen shoulder.
.
Manual Therapy:
Hands-on techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue massage, and stretching may be used to improve shoulder mobility, reduce muscle tightness, and break up adhesions.
.
Heat and Cold Therapy:
Applying heat or cold packs to the affected shoulder can help reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and improve range of motion.
Ultrasound Therapy:
Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to promote tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and improve blood circulation in the shoulder joint.
Lifestyle Modifications:
Modifications: Our team will provide guidance on proper shoulder mechanics, ergonomic adjustments, and activity modification to prevent further aggravation of the shoulder joint and promote recovery.
At The Master Physiotherapy Clinic, we are committed to providing compassionate care and personalized treatment to help you overcome frozen shoulder and regain mobility and function in your shoulder.
