Frozen shoulder happens when the joint capsule thickens and tightens. It often moves through freezing, frozen and thawing stages, and is more common in people with diabetes, thyroid conditions or after a period of immobilization.
Frozen shoulder is frustrating and slow; we validate how hard it is and set realistic goals stage by stage. Care respects pain early on and becomes more active as motion returns.
Gentle joint mobilization of the shoulder and neighboring joints maintains as much motion as possible.
Physical therapy guides stage-appropriate stretching and strengthening to restore range of motion.
Massage reduces surrounding muscle guarding.
Acupuncture can help with pain and sleep.
Functional medicine can look at blood sugar and other metabolic factors linked to frozen shoulder.
Most plans combine two or more of these services, chosen together with you, and your providers share one plan so every visit builds on the last.
It often improves over time, but guided care can reduce pain and help you regain more motion sooner.
Not early on. We match the intensity of care to your stage.
Yes, it's more common in people with diabetes. Good blood sugar management may help.
No referral is needed. We accept health insurance as an out-of-network provider, as well as auto insurance claims and workers’ compensation claims, and every service can also be paid directly or through a monthly membership. Call (303) 465-6332 or request a free consultation to get started.
This page is general education, not a diagnosis or a substitute for an exam. If your symptoms are severe or getting worse quickly, contact your physician or call 911.
We take your word for how you describe your symptoms and your condition. We never dismiss what you feel.
With severe and chronic conditions, we spend the time to consider every potential cause instead of only treating surface symptoms.
Care is built on the movements you use every day, constant core activation, proper functional movement patterns and proper breathing mechanics.
Nobody is built the same or has been through the same things, so no two treatment plans are alike.
Tell us what you're feeling in your own words. We'll listen, look at the whole picture and build a plan around you.
