Adhesive Capsulitis

Adhesive capsulitis is a condition typically common in adults over the age of 40 years. There is a very high correlation of those with adhesive capsulitis with those that suffer with type II diabetes, although the true cause of it is unknown. Adhesive capsulitis usually comes on as a stage of ongoing pain lasting weeks to months, followed by stiffness that gets progressively worse for months to years, followed by periods where some range of motion is returned, but never fully.

When not met with early treatment, adhesive capsulitis can progress into a condition that responds to treatment but with limited success. On the flip side of that, early diagnosis and treatment yields highly successful results. Treatment for adhesive capsulitis includes soft tissue care, stretching regimens, diet modification, and maintenance care. All of these treatment options are carefully created and customized to your case so that you can enjoy the maximum benefit to keep you out of shoulder pain.
