best ayurvedic treatment for frozen shoulder in kerala

 

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. Symptoms typically develop gradually and worsen over time before gradually resolving, usually within 1 to 3 years.
Extended periods of shoulder immobility, such as after surgery or arm fracture, increase the risk of developing a frozen shoulder.
We offer top-tier treatment for Frozen Shoulder at Sreeragam Ayurveda Health Retreat. We've effectively managed over 100 cases of chronic Frozen Shoulder for the past 7 years. Impressively, 50-75% of these patients noticed notable symptom improvements within just 28-45 days of treatment.We are one of the best providers of Ayurvedic treatments for frozen shoulders in Kerala.
Treatment for frozen shoulders involves range-of-motion exercises. In some cases, corticosteroids and numbing medications may be injected into the joint. Surgical intervention, through arthroscopic surgery, is rarely necessary to loosen the joint capsule and improve movement.

Ayurvedic Remedies for Frozen Shoulder

The treatment mainly focuses on eliminating the underlying root cause of the pain. Also,permanent relief from these symptoms is the main goal.
Ayurvedic therapy comprises usage of herbal medications like Aristas, Kashayas, use of oils both externally and internally. This treatment is intended to permanently eliminate the harmful toxins from the body.
Panchakarma treatment uses oil massage, steam bath along with Narangakizhi and Nasyam.This distinctive treatment originates from Kerala.
General recommendation is to take at least 10 days of this massage therapy followed by a minimum of 7-day rest period.
Massage therapy includes using medicated oil to squeeze on the body with a cotton cloth. Elakizhi is another popular herbal massage which helps in strengthening the muscles. This also facilitates the mobility in the shoulder and all the parts of the body.
The duration of the therapy usually depends on the severity of the disease and the symptoms. It can extend between a week to 3 weeks and might be months also in some cases.


Symptoms

Frozen shoulder typically develops slowly in three stages.

  1. Freezing stage: Any movement of the shoulder causes pain, and the shoulder's ability to move becomes limited. This stage lasts from 2 to 9 months.
  2. Frozen stage: Pain might lessen during this stage. However, the shoulder becomes stiffer. Using it becomes more difficult. This stage lasts from 4 to 12 months.
  3. Thawing stage: The shoulder's ability to move begins to improve. This stage lasts from 5 to 24 months.

Causes

The shoulder joint is enclosed in a capsule of connective tissue. Frozen shoulder occurs when this capsule thickens and tightens around the shoulder joint, restricting its movement.
It's unclear why this happens to some people. But it's more likely to happen after keeping a shoulder still for a long period, such as after surgery or an arm fracture.
People 40 and older, particularly women, are more likely to have frozen shoulders.

Immobility or Reduced mobility

Individuals who have experienced limited shoulder mobility are more susceptible to developing frozen shoulders. Restricted movement can stem from various factors, including:

  1. Rotator cuff injury
  2. Broken arm
  3. Stroke
  4. Recovery from surgery
  5. Systemic diseases

Individuals with certain medical conditions seem to have a higher likelihood of developing frozen shoulders. Diseases that may elevate the risk include:

  1. Diabetes
  2. Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism)
  3. Underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism)
  4. Cardiovascular disease
  5. Parkinson's disease
