Frozen Shoulder
Adhesive capsulitis, often known as frozen shoulder, is a painful ailment that causes stiffness
and restricted movement in the shoulder joint. It results from the shoulder capsule's tightness
and thickness, which limits movement. It often develops over time and can be brought on by
trauma, surgery, or underlying medical issues. Physical therapy, anti-inflammatory drugs, and
in more severe situations, corticosteroid injections or surgical intervention may all be used as
treatments, albeit they frequently go better with time. Our specialist treatment focuses on
reducing discomfort, enhancing range of motion, and regaining shoulder function to make
rehabilitation easier and more comfortable. Count on our knowledge for thorough
