Chinese Medicine offers many therapies which can speed the release of "frozen shoulder", also known as adhesive capsulitis. The treatment clue is in the name: what is "frozen" is cold and immobilised, and so by heating and promoting movement with acupuncture, moxa, heat lamps and herbal medicine, we can help people regain their function and movement in an accelerated timeframe.
In this episode, we discuss these therapies in more detail, and offer simple remedies you can also try at home. We discuss also the importance of supporting general health to speed recovery, and allowing for the flow and expression of emotions.
