What is frozen shoulder?

Also called adhesive capsulitis, frozen shoulder is a painful loss of shoulder range that progresses through freezing, frozen and thawing phases — often over 12–24 months.

How osteopathy supports recovery

We can't rush the pathology, but we can dramatically improve your experience of it: pain management, protecting neighbouring joints from compensating, and re-mobilising as the capsule allows. Osteopath Mitcham — hands-on osteopathy at Lifestyle Essentials, 503 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham.
