As a proud Melbourne chiropractor for frozen shoulder, I offer a holistic treatment approach starting with precise diagnosis for your condition, leading to personlised chiropractic care. With continuous efforts, you will see increased mobility and long lasting relief.

- Difficulty performing overhead or behind-the-back movements.
2. Frozen Stage:
- Persistent shoulder pain, worse at night.
- Severe limitation in shoulder movement and range.
3. Thawing Stage:

What are the Causes of Frozen Shoulder?
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, develops due to several contributing factors that lead to inflammation and thickening of the shoulder capsule. Understanding these causes is crucial for effective management and treatment. Frozen shoulder develops from:
- Inflammation: Thickening of the shoulder capsule and adhesion formation.
- Previous Injury or Surgery: Triggering inflammation.
- Prolonged Immobilization: After injury or surgery.
- Underlying Conditions: Diabetes, thyroid disorders, Parkinson’s, and cardiac issues.
- Age and Gender: More common in women aged 40-60.
- Lifestyle Factors: Overuse, poor posture, and lifting techniques.
Understanding these causes guides effective treatment strategies at Flynn Chiro in Melbourne.
