Chiropractic Care: Unfreezing the Grip of Frozen Shoulder in Singapore
Frozen Shoulder Relief through Chiropractic Care in Singapore
At Total Health Chiropractic Singapore, we understand the challenges posed by frozen shoulder – a condition medically known as adhesive capsulitis.
It is characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint, often severely limiting the range of motion.
Frozen shoulder is particularly prevalent among individuals aged 40 to 60 and is more common in women than men.
In Singapore, a study suggests that it affects a significant number of adults, particularly those leading sedentary lifestyles.
The Human Body and Frozen Shoulder
The shoulder is one of the most complex and mobile joints in the human body, comprising several layers including muscles, tendons, and a capsule.
When this capsule thickens or tightens, it leads to frozen shoulder, restricting movement and causing pain. The condition typically evolves in three stages – freezing, frozen, and thawing – each presenting its unique challenges.
Chiropractic Care's Role in Managing Frozen Shoulder
Chiropractic care offers an effective, non-invasive solution to those suffering from frozen shoulder in Singapore. Our approach focuses on restoring mobility and alleviating pain through techniques targeting the shoulder's musculoskeletal structure.
Our chiropractors use specialized spinal and joint adjustments to manage frozen shoulders. We can significantly impact shoulder function by improving spinal alignment and joint mobility, encouraging the body's natural healing processes.

SUCCESS STORIES
“At first I didn't believe that it was a neck problem that was causing frozen shoulder as it seemed completely unrelated. However, when the chiropractor explained my x-rays to me it seemed plausible so I gave their adjustments a go. After a slow start, I saw some real changes starting in the third week, and I lifted my arm higher than I had managed for over a year. We are now three months into the care plan and I have regained about 75% of my original movement and the pain is about 90% gone.
For me this is amazing as I'd all but given up and was thinking of surgical options which scared me greatly. Thank you so much for your skills and determination, I feel that you have saved me from something really terrible.”
