Service FAQ
Questions About Frozen Shoulder Physiotherapy
Can physiotherapy help frozen shoulder?
Yes. Physiotherapy is a mainstay of frozen shoulder care, helping reduce stiffness and restore shoulder movement through stage-appropriate mobilisation, manual therapy, and a guided home programme. Dr. Pratiksha Gadkari matches treatment to your stage of recovery.
How long does frozen shoulder take to recover?
Frozen shoulder recovers in stages and can take time, but physiotherapy helps ease pain and speed the return of movement. After your assessment, Dr. Pratiksha Gadkari will outline a personalised plan with realistic milestones.
Is exercise safe during the painful stage of frozen shoulder?
Yes, with the right approach. In the painful stage we prioritise gentle, pain-respecting mobilisation and pain relief, then progress to stretching and strengthening as the shoulder allows.
