What is frozen shoulder?

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that affects the connective tissue around the shoulder joint. It occurs when this tissue becomes stiff, thick, and inflamed, severely restricting movement and causing persistent pain.

You will typically experience pain or stiffness that worsens over time, making everyday activities such as getting dressed, reaching overhead, or sleeping increasingly difficult.

To treat this condition, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) takes a holistic approach to frozen shoulder, addressing the root cause to promote recovery rather than simply managing symptoms.

Frozen shoulder according to TCM

TCM views frozen shoulder (五十肩) through a different lens than Western medicine.

 

Rather than focusing solely on physical inflammation, TCM examines how blocked Qi (vital energy), impaired blood circulation, and external pathogenic factors disrupt your shoulder's natural function.

How TCM treats frozen shoulder naturally

TCM addresses the root causes of frozen shoulder by restoring your body's Qi (vital energy) and blood circulation. Through acupuncture, cupping, Gua Sha, and herbal medicine, TCM provides effective relief while supporting your body's natural healing process.
