Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

It is important to keep as such movement as possible but this should be done in a way that does not aggravate the shoulder or cause pain. Frozen shoulders have an inflammatory component to them and over doing it can delay recover and increase symptoms. The movements below are the key ways in which your shoulder moves. Keeping your shoulder moving in all 4 directions will stop it stiffening up more than necessary.

The key movements are;         

- Lifting the arm in front
                                                 
- Lifting it out to the side
                                                 
- Hand behind back
                                                 
- Turning your open palm away from you
