    Frozen Shoulder

frozen shoulder

Frozen shoulder is when it becomes hard to move your arm without pain or stiffness. Frozen shoulder comes from several different areas. Trauma like falls, exercise injuries, even sleeping on your side can lead to frozen shoulder. There are multiple ways to treat frozen shoulder. One is to take the pressure off of the 11th cranial nerve. This is easily done with adjustments. However, most frozen shoulder is based in neurology, it’s a brain problem. The brain controls what's called neurological tone. What that means is how much or how hard a muscle is pulling all the time, we also call it posture. When this “tone” gets too high in the front it restricts the proper movement of the arm. These issues can often be worse in the morning than at the end of the day. The easiest way to repair tone issues is with specific physical therapy. The doctors at Chalmers Wellness have been specifically trained to use “neurological reflexive inhibition” to reset the tone. Often in the very first treatment people can feel relief.
