Frequently Asked Questions

How many physiotherapy sessions are needed for frozen shoulder?

Treatment duration varies based on the stage and severity. Typically, you'll need 2-3 sessions per week for 8-12 weeks initially. Early-stage frozen shoulder may respond in 4-6 weeks, while advanced cases may require 3-6 months of treatment. We provide a personalized timeline after your initial assessment.

Can physiotherapy cure frozen shoulder faster than waiting it out?

Yes, significantly. While frozen shoulder can resolve on its own in 1-3 years, targeted physiotherapy can reduce this timeline to 6-12 months and achieve better functional outcomes. Early intervention prevents long-term stiffness and accelerates return to normal activities.

What makes your frozen shoulder treatment different?

We use a stage-specific treatment approach, combining progressive therapeutic exercises, targeted stretching protocols, and therapeutic modalities. Our physiotherapists create customized exercise programs tailored to your specific stage (freezing, frozen, or thawing) and provide detailed home programs to accelerate recovery between sessions.
