So, what is frozen shoulder and what can you do to help yourself if you've got it?

Typical symptoms of frozen shoulder include restricted range of movement constant deep aching, sleeplessness and sharp pain sudden movement.

Most people don't like moving their shoulder but actually by doing gentle movement within your pain-free range of movement can help your shoulder.

Here's a couple of exercises that can help.

The first one is an arm dangle.

So allowing your arm just to hang loosely you can start to move it gently backwards and forwards side to side or even round in circles staying within your pain-free range of movement.

Another exercise is a finger crawl against a wall.

Placing your hand on the wall somewhere where it feels comfortable for your shoulder and then crawling your fingers up the wall or to the sides again staying within your pain-free range of movement.

The frozen shoulder is actually a bit of a misnomer as a term.

It was originally coined in the 1930s but it doesn't mean that your shoulder is frozen or stuck for most people, it's caused by facial restrictions due to subconscious guarding perhaps due to a previous injury or poor posture or even emotional trauma.

By regularly starting to move your shoulder within your pain-free range of movement you can help to undo those restrictions and reduce your symptoms.
