At Cure Space, we understand how this condition can impact your daily life, and we’re here to guide you through effective treatment options.

What is Frozen Shoulder?


Frozen shoulder occurs when the connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint becomes thickened and tight, restricting movement. This condition typically progresses through three phases:


  • Freezing phase: Pain worsens, and movement becomes increasingly limited.

  • Frozen phase: Pain may decrease, but stiffness remains.

  • Thawing phase: Movement gradually improves.


This process can last several months to years, making patience and proper care essential.

Who is at Risk?


Frozen shoulder is more common in individuals between 40 and 60 years old and those with diabetes or thyroid conditions. It can also develop after an injury or prolonged immobility of the shoulder.

How Can Physiotherapy Help?


Physiotherapy is a cornerstone in managing frozen shoulder. Here’s how we approach treatment:


  • Pain Management: Using gentle techniques to reduce pain and inflammation.

  • Restoring Mobility: Tailored stretching and range-of-motion exercises help improve shoulder flexibility.

  • Strengthening: Once pain decreases, strengthening exercises support the muscles around the shoulder joint.

  • Patient Education: We teach you how to manage symptoms at home and prevent stiffness.
