Condition: Frozen Shoulder •  Pain
Treatment: Expel Wind-Cold. Promote Qi and Blood circulation and remove the obstruction from the channels and collaterals by using points mainly from the three Yang Channels of the hand.
Description: Pain initially starts on one or two shoulders. It alleviates in the daytime and worsens at night, and may also involve the upper arm, nape and back. The condition is also aggravated by cold, but is alleviated with warmth. At the advanced stage, there may be difficulty in raising the arm, limited arm abductions and backwards stretching. Prolonged frozen shoulder may result in muscular atrophy.
