Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that affects the shoulder joint, causing pain and stiffness. It typically develops gradually over time and progresses through stages. The disease is characterized by the thickening and tightening of the capsule, a connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint. In Ayurveda, the frozen shoulder is known as Apabahuka caused by an imbalance of the Vata dosha. This leads to a disturbance in the blood supply and hampering functions within the shoulder joint.

At AyurVAID, we aim to improve the condition and arrest further disease progression. Our Ayurveda treatment for frozen shoulder protocols focus on internal medicines along with physical, and occupational therapies that strengthen and stretch muscles and improve joint functions. Panchakarma therapies can help to retain function and range of motion.
