Melt Your Frozen Shoulder Don’t let shoulder pain get in the way of summer fun!
Don’t let shoulder pain get in the way of summer fun! Summer is in full swing. This means tons of fun outdoor activities and celebrations are in order! If you want to participate, you need to be feeling your best. However, if you are dealing with a nagging pain in your shoulder, it may be hard for you to fully enjoy yourself this season. You may have a condition called “frozen shoulder.” Contact Zenith Physiotherapy & Wellness to schedule an appointment with your physical therapist to have your condition assessed and treated, so you can get back to doing the things you love this season. What is “frozen shoulder”? Adhesive capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder, is a condition that occurs following an injury or alongside another shoulder condition such as bursitis, tendonitis, or arthritis. This condition happens when scar tissue forms after a period of physical inactivity. The shoulder can become stiff or inflamed, and your range of motion will become limited. This can put a damper on your ability to enjoy outings with your family and friends!
Exercise Essentials Try these movements if you are experiencing hip pain. Scapular Retraction Stand tall, shoulders relaxed. Pull shoulder blades back and down. Don’t hunch your shoulders.
