Frozen shoulder limiting your movement in Ancaster or Hamilton? Evidence-based one-on-one treatment. Free 20-minute consultation. Book today.
Book Free Consultation →Frozen shoulder — clinically known as adhesive capsulitis — is one of the most painful and debilitating shoulder conditions in musculoskeletal medicine. The progressive loss of shoulder movement, combined with significant pain at rest and at night, has a profound impact on sleep, work and daily life.
Research published in the Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (2011) estimates that frozen shoulder affects 2–5% of the general population — with peak incidence in adults aged 40–60 and a significantly higher prevalence in people with diabetes. Despite its reputation as a self-limiting condition, research consistently shows that structured physiotherapy significantly accelerates recovery and reduces the duration of symptoms compared to waiting for natural resolution.
