Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is stubborn precisely because it moves through phases — a painful freezing stage, a stiff frozen stage, and a gradual thawing — and treatment that ignores the phase often makes things worse. That is why ACTYMED runs a dedicated Frozen Shoulder Clinic: enough cases, treated systematically, to match the right treatment to the right stage every time.
Led by Dr. Ajeesh T. Alex, the clinic combines graded joint mobilization and manual therapy, dry needling for the guarding muscles around the shoulder, warm Ayurvedic bolus therapy (Podikizhi) for stiffness, and a staged home exercise programme that progresses as your capsule allows. Progress is measured objectively — range of motion recorded at every visit — so you can see the thaw happening in numbers.
Most frozen shoulders recover well with this staged conservative approach; the clinic’s role is to shorten the journey and protect your sleep, work and daily function along the way.
