FAQ
Common questions
How long does frozen shoulder last?
It can last from several months to two years, but treatment can ease the pain and improve movement much sooner.
Will the stretches hurt?
You may feel a stretch and mild discomfort, but not sharp pain. We adjust the exercises to the stage you are in.
Does diabetes affect frozen shoulder?
Yes. People with diabetes are more likely to develop it and may recover more slowly, so starting physiotherapy early helps.
