How We Can Help with Frozen Shoulder​

​

What is Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that leads to pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. It typically develops gradually, often worsening over time. The main cause is thought to be inflammation and thickening of the shoulder capsule, which restricts movement and makes everyday activities like reaching, lifting, or even dressing, difficult.

This condition can be incredibly frustrating and painful, but effective treatments are available. At Town Osteo, located in Leicester, we specialize in addressing frozen shoulder using a holistic approach that blends osteopathic manipulation, acupuncture, and physiotherapy techniques.

Who Gets Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder can affect anyone, but certain groups are more prone to developing the condition. You are more likely to develop frozen shoulder if:

• You're aged between 40 and 60 years old, particularly women.

• You've had shoulder immobility due to an injury or surgery.

• You have diabetes or other underlying conditions like thyroid disease, which can predispose you to adhesive capsulitis.

• You’ve experienced prolonged immobilization after a stroke or surgery.

If you’re in Leicester or the surrounding area and dealing with persistent shoulder pain and stiffness, visiting our clinic could be the key to a faster recovery.

Yasin, the Osteopath and Medical Acupuncturist at TownOsteo.com

At Town Osteo Clinic, our lead practitioner, Yasin, is an experienced osteopath and medical acupuncturist with a proven track record in treating frozen shoulder. Yasin’s hands-on approach focuses on relieving pain, increasing range of motion, and helping you regain full shoulder functionality. His tailored treatment methods include:

1. Osteopathic Manipulation: This involves gentle and precise manipulation of the shoulder joint to improve movement, release tightness, and promote healing. By focusing on the musculoskeletal system, Yasin helps loosen up the shoulder capsule, allowing for greater mobility.

2. Medical Acupuncture (Dry Needling): Needling is an effective method for reducing shoulder stiffness and alleviating pain. Yasin carefully inserts fine needles into trigger points around the shoulder to stimulate blood flow and release tight muscles. This method also helps reduce inflammation, speeding up the healing process.

3. Ultrasound Therapy: Ultrasound is used to promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation. By sending sound waves into the affected tissues, the therapy can enhance cellular regeneration and relieve pain in the shoulder. This method is particularly effective when combined with manipulation and needling.

4. Posture and Joint Support: Yasin also addresses the surrounding joints and muscles. Often, poor posture or misalignment in the spine and upper back can exacerbate frozen shoulder. By supporting and correcting the posture, we prevent further strain on the shoulder joint, which aids recovery.
