After the examination, the Spine and Physiotherapist may adjust the spine and then the shoulder.Some of the frozen shoulder adjustments may be painful if no anesthesia is used, even though Spine and Physiotherapy adjustments in general are not painful.

However, adjustments for frozen shoulder will give the greatest amount of correction in the first visit. A short and sharp increase in pain may be felt directly after the adjustment, but the pain will calm down in a few minutes. After the pain subsides, the Spine and Physiotherapist will again test the range of motion, which can improve as much as 50% or more after the first visit with certain Spine and Physiotherapist.

Typically, the pain will be less severe than before the adjustment. The Spine and Physiotherapist will then recommended some exercises, which will also improve the effectiveness of the Spine and Physiotherapy adjustments.

1. Shoulder pain is most often caused by subluxations in the neck. Neck pain and stiffness is commonly associated with this condition confirming the neck problem. Without treating the cause adequately, often in the neck, NECK PAIN TREATMENT, all other treatment options are slow and dependent on the body's natural recuperative powers.With no treatment at all this condition usually resolves within three years, owing to this natural healing power of the body.

2. Movement. The worst treatment of this condition is immobilisation, as in a sling. It rapidly worsens the pain and stiffness. A gentle set of stretches for the FS, done frequently, numerous times a day, is an essential part of the Spine and Physiotherapy care. As the movement returns, and the pain lessens, active rehab exercises, ROTATOR CUFF STRENGTHENING are essential.

3. Key to shoulder treatment is mobilisation and/or adjusting the Acromio Clavicular joint. The earlier the diagnosis is made and start treatment, the better the prognosis would be. Patients should comply to the treatment protocol so as to maximize the treatment effects.
