Heal Your Frozen Shoulder Fast with These Home Stretches | Dr. Mandell

Adhesive capsulitis, commonly known as frozen shoulder, is a condition characterized by the stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. This occurs when the connective tissue surrounding the joint becomes inflamed and thickens, limiting motion and causing significant discomfort. Early intervention with targeted stretches is crucial in managing and potentially reversing this debilitating condition. These stretches work by progressively enhancing the range of motion, maintaining the elasticity of the joint capsule, and reducing scar tissue formation. When initiated early, stretching exercises can prevent the shoulder from becoming further immobilized, thus mitigating the severity of the condition. Additionally, these exercises improve blood flow to the affected area, promoting faster healing and reducing inflammation. Regular practice of these stretches not only helps in maintaining shoulder mobility but also alleviates pain and stiffness, contributing to a quicker recovery process. By incorporating these preventive strategies, individuals can manage symptoms more effectively and enhance their overall shoulder function, thereby improving their quality of life.

Every time something isn’t working right with my body, Dr.Mandell posts a video with instructions how to fix it. Thank you!! ❤

[@otismeotisme7987]

So True I was having this problem 😊

[@cherylbrunette2490]

As a license massage therapist that knows the importance of stretching, I love that you make these videos to show people they can self heal or prevent injury. People do not realize we need to stretch daily to keep the muscles healthy.

[@poojahm120]

Good day dr , i am not sure if I have the same. I am not able raise my hand, ( left) straight up or over my head to touch the right side of the ear .

I hope your frozen shoulder heals soon Dr. Mandell! I had one about 8 years ago. It took around 2-3 years to 100% fully heal. It started to free up very gradually after the first year. I can confirm that all the exercises you describe are spot on. Especially the bad free arm hanging/swinging motions. During the slow healing phase, whilst doing this gently with a 5 or 10kg dumbbell I would get random pops as the connective scar tissue fibres snap! I came to realise that with each joint pop, I was getting more mobility back. As well as swinging the arm, whilst it hangs try lifting and lowering the dumbbell by bending the elbow and also twisting/rotating it back and forth whilst hanging it vertically. The inertia of the dumbbell helps to release the tense fibres. The pops are a good sign the therapy is working. Swimming regularly (breaststroke) helps also. With frozen shoulder it is very important not to immobilise as this just makes it get worse. The worst thing you can do is put the arm in a sling for days (even though it temporarily feels better) Good luck. Peter.

You know, a lot of people say that YT is no good because of censorship. Perhaps that is true for some things but where would we be without it? We wouldn't have Dr Mandell. Always useful info, Doc. You've helped me, us, more than you know. God bless you.❤❤❤

Thank you so much, I have followed your insructions on sinus opening, and this shoulder stretch is very eye opening ! feels better already.. I appreciate suggestions. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with this community. it's the simple little things that helps.

[@jeffruebens8355]

At about 55 I was just scratching my back and moved my hand too far- use a back scratching stick instead. Hanging from the top of door frames fixed my frozen shoulder. I do this stretching almost every day now, to keep my shoulders and back more stretched.

[@kevinlawlor412]

Yesterday I had Manipulation under anesthesia shoulder procedure. My shoulder feels great, but I will still use these exercises post-surgery.

I had a MRI which told me I have a 3mm tear in my rotator cuff area. After rest and healing, I will be using these. I have had frozen shoulder about a decade ago, and these were all my exercises. I will keep this video handy for when I am ready to work the arm again (not in a sling currently-drs ok with that).

[@Joycer2002]

Same problem, two frozen shoulders, tendonitis inflammation and pain since last August. I am getting Fascia Stretch treatments as my son is a Fascia Stretch Therapist. I am getting most of my mobility back. I still often wake up in pain from only sleeping on my back but I start doing these mobility exercises to get my shoulders moving again. I also use and Near Infra Red light to speed healing but not often enough. . I love sitting in my warm sunny car to help relax my shoulders - feels so good! I am hoping that the summer heat will totally heal me and I can wake up with no pain.

[@TomMcDonaldatYahooDotCom]

Great info, thank you Doc; I was at a point where I could bend much at the knees(arthritis setting in ), but little by little I did a little more and then more bending (crouching, bending at knees) and now I can bend all the way down(took me 2 years),; I am now working on staying bent at the knees for longer and longer periods of time - its a lil' painful, but I can bear the pain as I did when I first started hopefully without injuring myself and a positive outcome in the long run?
