Frozen shoulder is a common term used for covering a whole range of problems affecting the shoulder joint. Problems may include restricted movement, painful shoulder joint, reduced flexibility and others. Some people also experience a shooting sensation radiating down their arms or into their neck. Tingling sensations in the hands and palms are also commonly caused, which worsens at night. Generally, frozen shoulder occurs suddenly without any apparent cause or a history of injury or trauma. There are conventional treatments for frozen shoulder such as medication, painkillers and soothing balms.
Instructions:
Acupuncture provides an excellent and effective course of treatment for all kinds of shoulder pain and complaints. After assessing the nature of your pain, acupuncturists will determine the ideal location or pathways for the procedure, which are to be unblocked. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine practices, when there is an overall imbalance in the flow of Qi (life energy) in the body, pains and aches are caused. Following this theory, it is obvious that the flow of energy in the body is not optimum, which results in frozen shoulder. As such, acupuncturists aim to unblock all those meridians and pathways to ensure proper flow of life energy, which maintains an overall balance of energy in the body. At our clinic, specially trained and well-equipped acupuncturists assess each and every patient after observing their condition for proper diagnosis of their condition. We provide an effective, safe and gentle treatment for shoulder pain. In a few sessions, we have successfully reduced pain and increased mobility for our patients.
