Frozen shoulder

4 replies

I've had shoulder problems since Xmas and now my shoulder is frozen despite trying to keep it moving, it's seized.
I'm now on tailored physio exercises (which have helped a bit) until I can get a steroid injection. Does anyone have any method they used that could help to free it, pleeeease!

My oesteopath recommended a plug in heated shoulder wrap. I bought it from Amazon for about £35 it has been a life saver. During the day when moving around I use Voltorol

I had acupuncture very successfully for my frozen shoulder and tennis elbow although painful but it meant I didn't need the steroid injection.

I also did daily yoga and exercises - approximately 2 hrs per day - I appreciate a steroid injection might be preferable to that!

It took 9 months to get it back to almost back to normal.

There was a thread about this some time ago so worth a browse op.

My physio also suggested acupuncture. In our area it is available on the NHS

I feel for you. The only thing which worked for me was Physiotherapy- it was agonising at the time but released it gradually
