Frozen shoulder, medically known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes stiffness, pain, and restricted movement in the shoulder joint. What makes it even more frustrating is that it can take up to 3 years to resolve on its own in some cases.
Yes, you read that right—three long years of discomfort, disturbed sleep, and limited movement in your daily life.
But here’s the good news—physiotherapy can significantly speed up the healing process and help you regain mobility and comfort much sooner.
What Is Frozen Shoulder?
Frozen shoulder typically develops in three stages:
-
Freezing Stage: Any movement causes pain, and your shoulder’s range of motion begins to decrease. This stage can last from 6 weeks to 9 months.
-
Frozen Stage: Pain may reduce, but stiffness remains. Daily activities become challenging. This can last 4 to 6 months.
-
Thawing Stage: Shoulder movement begins to improve gradually. Full recovery may take 6 months to 2 years without therapy.
How Can Physiotherapy Help?
At Xcell Physiocare, our experienced physiotherapists provide a personalized treatment plan that targets both the symptoms and root causes of frozen shoulder.
✅ 1. Mobility Improvement
Using range-of-motion exercises and joint mobilization techniques, we help restore flexibility and function in your shoulder joint.
✅ 2. Pain Reduction
Our therapists use ultrasound therapy, manual therapy, and cold/hot packs to relieve pain effectively.
✅ 3. Prevent Muscle Weakness
With prolonged immobility, muscles can weaken. Physiotherapy helps keep your shoulder muscles active and strong during the recovery process.
✅ 4. Posture Correction
Poor posture can worsen symptoms. We guide you on maintaining proper alignment to avoid strain on your shoulder.
✅ 5. Faster Recovery Time
Instead of waiting years, physiotherapy can cut recovery time in half or more, allowing you to get back to your regular lifestyle much sooner.
Who Is at Risk of Frozen Shoulder?
-
Adults aged 40–60

If you're in one of these categories, early intervention is key to preventing the condition from worsening.
